Yes, you should try it some time, as it has many other uses too. Its pretty
trick, very thin, flows well into cracks and crevices,into the pits left from
sandblasting, etc... You probably could do it from above, then dry brush it
from underneath (as a way to keep it off you). But the best result would be
doing it upside down from the inside. I used it in so places that regular
paint wouldn't flow to unless it was thinned too much, worked great for that.
I think it would probably be a good thing to use where the OE sealing stuff
on the inside of the rear fender bolts to. You know the sealing material that
dries up and falls out (the 30+year old body caulk). This would serve 2
purposes, 1- seal/neutralize the existing rust, 2-seal the gap in the joints
to keep water from getting into the car and pooling on the floor under the
rear seat. I've noticed that on most cars this seal is usually crumbling
after all these years. I did it on my Notch while I was in there, and on my
old Square that I used to have (kind of PM for them). I hope this helps.
