Default Need some guidance -- Rust issue

OK! You have my attention. I read the entire thread last night and went and looked this AM. I have a 2007 coupe in Arizona BUT it gets cold here. It was 15 degrees last night. The car is garaged all winter November thru April. Hand washed and does not get driven in the rain. I am the second owner so I can not speak for its prior life in Arizona.

Well drivers side is dry with NO rust BUT the passenger's side has no rust but I can see and feel the wet.

Questions

1. Should I take off the seal for the winter?

2. What can I put on it to protect the door when it has NO rust on it. I want to provent it.

Thanks

Joe

PS I have always had a two seater -- MG - TC, TD, Midget, B and A as well a TR-6. So I am very familiar with the ravages of rust. This car is a true pleasure. I laugh to my self when I read about the poor creature comfort, etc. Anybody remember wood floors and adjusting carbs. This car is a true pleasure to cruise in.
