That's right, but if memory serves me, and frequently it does not, there is a structural reinforcement piece between the inner and outer rocker panel that makes it impossible to get at the inside of the outside, although limited access is available through the rubber plug inside the rear wheel arch. Anyway I was reluctant to pull up the carpeting and waterproof membrane I'd recently installed inside the car.
BTW, the welding supply store didn't have the stuff (3M Weld-Thru Primer) but, wouldn't you know it, I found it right on the shelf at NAPA -- $22, ouch! I'll give it a try and see how it behaves.
