Great ideas to keep your car from rotting. I´do go a bit further and spray a layer of waxoyl or any other sort of cavity wax (that isn´t sticky when dry) over the spraypaint. To prevent rust in between the seams I use a penatrating cavity way, like dinitrol ML. The key is to crate a flexible water dispersing barrier between the metal and the elements.

Thanks buddy I'm glad you liked the video. It's great to be thorough and doing it properly means you won't be coming back to do it again soon!
