I am going to plate the airbags on my mci. My question is due to rusting of the airframe, would it be possible to spray a rust inhibiting paint inside the air frame before blocking it of to prevent further rusting from the inside?

All the rust to the airbeams on my MC7 was from the outside in. When I cut them open, they looked like brand new inside.(not even painted from the factory) The rust was from salt and road grime sitting on top of the beams. I am just planning to be meticulous about cleaning the undercarriage, and have used a good quality rust paint on the outside(por-15)

Roger thanks ,
I haven't had a chance to see inside. I just thought they would rust from the inside also from moisture in the air lines. I am planning on spraying the whole underside with a preventive paint.

Something like LPS-3 or Corrosion X will work fine, just fog and close.

Even the cheaper ones you buy in WM will probably work fine.
