I have sprayed inner frame seal from Eastwood to as much of the inside of the
frame rails as I could get to.  It is like a zinc oxide (green color) with a
rust encapsulator.  Should be enough.

completely.  Your best bet is to fog some rust preventative inside (I've used
LPS3; Waxoyl might work too).  Some of the old tube-and-fabric aircraft like
the Piper Cub had linseed oil inside the frame tubes for corrosion prevention.
