Default Protecting welds?

What can I use to protect the welds on the floor pans, or will rust encapulator work fine?

First hit it with POR 15 or any rust encapsulator, then hit it with seam seal. Paint over that when it dries.

I believe reinstalling the equivalent of the factory seam sealer would be a good idea.

Just about any silicon based seam sealer will work.
