rear door outside hinge rust
The hinges are starting to show rust where the pins hold the hinges together.
Since it is Mineral Grey (tan) the rust is not too noticable but I would like to nip this problem in the bud. Anyone dealt with this and any remedies?
Please understand that I know nothing about everything so step by step would help greatly.
Thanks all.

The doors are fiberglass, so cficare has a point. If you get stainless hinges, you'd be all set. Otherwise go with housedad's suggestion and keep them oiled up. It will not cure the rust but inhibit it from going any further.
