The best way I know to keep hidden areas with spot welds and such rust free is to coat with oil. After I finish all my body work, and assembly I'll make a small hole in boxed out areas like rockers, and boxed sections like the pics, and spray motor oil in there. Then plug with a nice looking plastic plug. Granted you get a little oil leaking out of seams and corners but it stops after a while, and I'd rather see oil than rust. The other thing about oil is it creeps into all of those impossible spots just like the salt water would do and protects those areas. My 02.
