I would be hesitant to using this stuff btw it's called Weatherwatch by GAF 
and Grace's
Ice and Water Shield.  Ice and Water shield is great on your roof up here, 
but when it gets
very warm it's softens up a bit(it's supposed too) so on your car with high 
underhood temps
in the summer it could create a bit of a mess.  But if you are interested 
in trying anyway
take one of the little business card samples stick it(self adhesive) under 
your hood and keep
an eye on it for a few weeks.  If it starts using it will be a lot easier 
to clean up a small patch.
