I have treated in inside rear fenders under my gas tanks with Corroless
rust treatment. I was planning on leaving the exposed Corroless as the
finish and put my fuel system back together. My garage has a "chemical
smell' which is probably a mixture of lots of things but I seem to remember
someone on the list talking about the smell generated by Corroless and not
wanting to treat the trunck because of the odor. Does this stuff stop
emitting fumes after a reasonable amount of time or should I top coat it
with something? I don't plan on repainting the car for at least a year. I
would hate to spray paint over this stuff only to have to sand it off later
when I put on a "Real" paint job.

I sprayed it in the same place as well as in the frame channels. My car is
completely opened up. No trunk lid etc. I'd say it outgassed for a good month
, here in the humid and chilly northeast. My garage had that restoration shop
air about it..ha
I also mixed about 5% mineral spirits with it to aid in spraying, so not sure
how much was due to this.
I haven't painted over any of it yet, but it seems like you might want to give
this stuff a long time to cure before doing so, maybe several months.....
