W210 Shock Tower Rust

Well, it's a beautiful day in New England....time to play with POR-15! My main goals are to deal with a one inch rust area on my W124 wheel well and, on my W210, the lower cross member that sits in water in the encapsulation panel (what a stupid design!) and a few spring perch spots.

I had hoped to address the surface rust at the shock towers....but it's just a bit too much of a reach (I only have ramps)....can't imagine that I would do anything other than a half a$$ed job.

The towers still look very solid. And I'm sure that, eventually, I will have to get my auto body guy to fix them properly. In the meantime, am I fine simply checking them once in a while to ensure there's no movement? Again, I've already resigned myself to paying for the repair down the road.
