Question Thoughts on rust proofing

Looking to get your thoughts on aftermarket yearly rust proofing. With all my previous vehicles I have used a company called Krown, you can check them here, http://www.krown.com/#default. I keep most of my cars for 6-8 years and have never had an issue with rust with any of them.

Here’s my concern, on most vehicles they need to drill additional holes (seen here http://www.krown.com/#process/) in various key areas to do a complete and proper job (not sure how many holes the TL has from the factory) just wondering if I should have them do it but not put any additional holes in any of the panels, keep in mind they use a ton of salt up here in the winter. Your thoughts?

whats the acura warranty on rust thru for canada cars?, should be extensive
most cars nowadays are coated at the factory in the primer paint

Acura MAY approve a spray on coating without drilling into the car
ask the service manager what they do or suggest

keeping the bottem of the car washed off with a light mist of water after severe road sanding is your best protection
Ck around for drive thru car wash with underbody rinse feature

Looking at the Canadian site it looks to be 5yrs/no distance limit.
