I swear by POR 15, available locally in Dallas. I did the pans of the Super 
several years ago because I found a small spot under the battery tray. I 
followed the directions, scraped the loose rust off, cleaned it, and painted 
it. It hasn't budged since. I did end up with it on my forehead, and had to 
sand (yes I said sand) it off. I dont think it comes in a spray, but its the 
best thing I have ever used. I think spray primers and the like just trap 
mostiure, not prevent rust.

Thanks sammie.
I've read Lee's article several times.
Basically what he is saying is that they are all a crock of $h1T in
regards to "encapsulation".
So, probably my best bet is to either get some master's series, or some
rustoleum spray paint.
I really need something that is in an aerosol can, to spray the inside
of the rocker assembly.
Mainly I just wanted to see if you guys were familiar with any products
that maybe nobody else has.
I just mainly don't want to be redoing this in another 10 years...
