POR-15 will beat Corroless hands down.

Hey folks, time to tap the collective wisdom on rust treatment.

I see that there are 2 good/popular ways to treat the repair of a rusty panel
-- POR-15 and Corroless.  I've heard lots of good and bad about POR-15, but
heard less about Corroless.  Would anyone with experience with Corroless please
come forward with your results?
I don't like the idea of 'annual' bodywork, so I would like to use the best
stuff I can get to do it once and not worry about it for a few years. Or
decades. ;-)

Since I will be removing the interior panels, what is good for treating the
back side of the seams?  I could spray in an oil/wax substance but I don't
really want to do it every 6 months.  If there is a better, more permanent product
out there I want to hear about it.

Also, last on the list, the vinyl that is glued on the interior between the
windows is peeling off and is seriously discolored.  Has anyone replaced it,
and what was the experience like?

Thanks all, now I will sit in front of my computer for a while, eagerly
awaiting any responses.
