Torque Box Tricks

Hi I was just wondering if anybody had any good tricks for painting/rustproofing the inside of the torque boxes? I did not really want to drill holes in the floor boards. I already bought an undercoat gun from Eastwood's but I can only get about halfway back. I fabricated an extension hose for the gun but it did not work. Just looking for some ideas.

thanks
Brian

I used POR....long sleeve throw-away shirt, rubber glove, & piant brush with long stick attached to it. Use flashlight & may need a mirror for spots, but just slopped it around till all was covered good

That is what I was thinking my next move would be. Thank you for the suggestion.
