Would coating inside the doors buy me some time ?
I have some paint issues on the truck and there is probably some rust inside so would taking the inside panels off the doors and coating the inside with rust preventative buy me some time or be worth the effort?
At some point the truck will need some rust mitigation and that might involve new panels and paint but I am hoping for quite a few years of fun and keeping it looking ok until I retire and can work on it all I want

Re: Would coating inside the doors buy me some time ?
Some will say no, but I say if it's already rusty trying to slow it down isn't going to hurt and may even help.
I've had pretty good luck with Ospho (phosphoric acid) and then a moisture cure paint (POR-15, Chassis Saver, etc.) Good luck, Rg
