    Brent, the Krown/Rust Check rust proofing will work, albeit not as well,
on the seam rust.  You can spray it on the seam from the front or the back if
you can get to it.  Once the rust has started in the seam it's pretty hard to
stop.  One of the problems is that those seams were filled with body seam
filler at the factory and it impedes the Krown/Rust Check from getting in
there.  It also traps moisture in there and that's one of the reasons the
rust begins in the seams in the first place.  I like to go around and scrape
out all this body seam filler stuff, clean up the seam rust, neutralise the
rust, prime the area with a good rust preventative primer, prime with a good
quality automotive base primer, top coat with the original colour paint, then
keep the area Krown/Rust Checked.

Cheers
