    Rust protection drill hole locations

    I am going to drill some holes (5 mm) and spray some Krown in hollow panels. I was thinking of drilling all 5 doors, middle/above of rocker panels, above rear wheel arches, maybe somewhere on the bonnet. Does anyone have some suggestions of exact drill hole locations?
