Re: factory seam sealers



yes, I think I will go that route. I have seen several products like this. I am just going to jam myself in to the trunk, reach forward and spray generously around the wheelhouse arch where it meets the quarter.
The front half of wheel house is a cinch as the window guts are out right now so I can just reach through there.

Eastwood also makes a internal frame coating that sprays on thru a plastic tube (I joined 2 together to achieve greater reach). It is claimed to convert rust to a inert state and encapsulate it. It also wicks very well so, I used it where panels are spot welded in lapping situations.

Hi Neal. Can tell you Jaguar used some kind of spray wax in the rockers panel (triangle) as Moisture/ Rust protection. 
Options to consider are gel spray WD40 ( sticky fish oil based) or Aviation 'Boeshield' also a 'Water Dusplacement Anti corrosion treatment'..

Once you have spread the sealer on you can take a paint brush with lacquer thinner on it and smooth it out.
