Default Protecting Boat Trailer from Rust ??

If it's galvinized, leave it alone. If not, get it
galvinized. Paint it, and it will look OK for a while, until
the places the paint doesn't stick too well flake off. Then
it will look like hell. Like painting your house with cheap
paint. You get to repaint every couple years.

Ok, I've asked a lot of questions here in the past about
getting the trailer we've made painted. I'm pretty sure
I've found the right company and that they will do a good
job.

My question today is: There are parts of the trailer that
are boxed in. This means that paint won't get down in
there. But water still will. The water will drain out.
What I'm wondering is: What are good ways to protect this
from rusting from the inside out??

Do paint shops typically have some type of longer
nozzels they can use to get paint in there?

Could they maybe put some type of car undercoating in
there?

Is there something I can do?

Obviously it won't be seen, so it doesn't have to look
pretty.

Yes...I will as my paint guy, but I'm hoping to get ideas
and information here first.

As always, THANKS to all the people who take time to
answer & discuss!

Gary
