He has done a few bare metal shell resto's (including the current Campaign he is working on). I think like you he used a high zinc based etch primer and then undersealed with some of the flexible, overpaintable sealant similar to the stuff used on the car originally.
Rich - you back from your hols yet?
Cheers,

Give it two coats by either brush or spray. I brushed it on as I wanted a good thickness on it - I then had it sprayed the same colour as the panels and it came out really neat! Well pleased and no more rust! It will only be a dry day car anyhow but I still wanted the headache of rust delat with - BTW testament to VW as the only rust on the floor pan was at the rear of wheel well where the back panel meets it - the muck seems to gather there and do its worst!
I took the sealer off with a wire wheel on the hand grinder - dead messy but easy.
