I'd just use a can of Rustoleum paint, you'll eventually have to do it again.

Eastwoods rust encapsulator would also be a good paint/sealer, would also help stop the rust.

Just make sure you mask the WHOLE truck before painting. I thought I had masked enough when I painted mine but the wind (even a slight breeze) can play havoc with the spray mist. The over spray is not fun to get off.

actually painting over it will make it grow faster you need to eliminate the oxygen source rubber is really bad because it holds water which gets trapped underneath. i would use rust bullet. then paint over it.
