Keith,
I don't know where you can buy in the US. In Canada, you can buy Rust
Check spray
cans from Canadian Tire.

Both Krown and Rust Check have franchised shops. These places do your
entire
vehicle for $C100 to $C150 depending upon vehicle size. To get at the
interior
panels, they drill holes in the door frame area and pass their spray
wands into
the interior. The holes are then plugged with plastic stoppers.

The holes are the part that I don't like. When I had our '91 MR2 Turbo
done, I
forbid any hole drilling and instructed the shop owner how to get at
everything
without them. However, I had the holes drilled in our '86 Syncro
Westfalia. I did
the '86 Syncro Doublecab myself with spray cans. The spray can route is
cheaper
but not as thorough in my opinion. Next year I'll probably have them do
the truck
too (holes and all).
