Joe,
Being a California guy, the only cars I've seen with "rust cancer" were
those housed at the beach. When I moved to Illinois I brought my 911S
taken cross country, and then saw what salted road cancer really was all
about. To protect my car I had a professional application of a product
called "ZeeBart". They actually drilled small holes into enclosed
spaces, like inside the doors, and other chassis areas, and applied with
a wand about 1/8 inch D., and the hole was plugged and sealed after
application.
Other "open" areas were cleaned and covered as well. If standard "under
seal" is used, I am told that small tears allow salt water in to pockets
and it rusts even quicker.
Six years later I came "home", and there was zero rust. I believe it is
those little nooks and cranny's that hold the salt. I don't have 20
years experience with this process, but it was recommended as "the best
thing to do".
So, now I have a 44 year old car that has never left California, not
especially protected, and no rust. So there is an alternate solution -
provided you don't already have "cancer".
Good Fortune,
Steve
