Rust at rear wheel wells, leaks into trunk
> Pro-Tect is a waterproof, flexible and permanent rubber coating that
> will act as a barrier against moisture-causing rust and corrosion, The stuff that I used was black. It was like rustproofing (but most of that type stuff never really hardens). When sprayed into the wheel wells, it looked like part of the car, particularly after a few miles of dirt collected. So it didn't need painting. If the holes are visible from above (through the trunk), then you might only want to spray from underneath, and then fill the top side with some caulk that you know will accept paint. I'm pretty sure that most rubberized surfaces will cause appearance problems when painted. |

The hole is visible from the trunk if the upholstery is removed, also visible is the path of corrosion from the hole to the bed of the trunk. |
