IN STORE ONLY. PRICE NOT REFLECTED ONLINE. YMMV.

HD in MA (appears to be nationwide after spot checking on Brickseek) is clearing out all the original Rust Oleum "Stops Rust" (not the Painters Touch 2x) spray paints for $3.50 down from $6.98. Looks like all colors except black and white are on clearance. They have tons of black and white so maybe once the inventory reduces on those they'll mark them down too.

A few of the specialty ones were on clearance too (mailbox paint, metallic, flake, etc).

Looks like they are cutting in Glidden to replace it maybe but not positive.

The store I was in, most of the neutral colors were gone (like brown) but they had lots of red, orange, and some others.

Home depot link for reference only, store price will not show here.

Brickseek URL for one color - just use it to see if your store says "clearance" - most likely if this one shows clearance they all (except black and white) will be marked down. Obviously you can grab the internet # for the color you're interested in off their site and substitute it at brickseek.

You absolutely need to derust, clean, treat, prime and paint before undercoating with rubberized spray if you want to get it right. Otherwise you're just covering up rust and actually making things worse by encapsulating it and allowing it to spread unseen as soon as a chip develops, which it will. This is the opposite of protecting metal from rust and an illusory solution to rust. Not better than nothing, worse than nothing. Anyone who can' be bothered to do it right should just spray with fluid film each year.
Rust needs moisture and oxygen to continue. Even if it chips, it still has less surface area (and exposure to oxygen and moisture) than untreated.

Yes, there are better ways to do it, and if it is bad rust, it should be done much more thoroughly, but that won't involve any of the products being discussed here.

Once a chip develops oxygen and moisture get in and slowly spread throughout the rest of the encapsulated portion, which gives rust an ideal growth medium. I've seen photos and videos and it really is often worse than no treatment. Rust treatment really is something you have to get right, on cars at least.

FWIW if you're hoping to use Rustoleum for auto use realize that it won't last that long nor offer good rust protection, especially if applied to underbody parts. I found this out the hard way and switched to POR-15. And forget about rust reformer or conversion products. They don't work on anything but the most superficial surface rust.
I use Por15 then top coat with rustoleum due to UV protection

Well coating the frame welds every few years on my last 3 trucks has proven to keep them in much better than the one before that. The salt here in Mass is killer and any protection you can get helps. Even if some moisture gets under the coating, it still isn't getting nearly as much air and moisture as being fully exposed 24x7. But hey, to each their own.

A single chip is often worse. Depending on what is causing the rusting and the environment the metal is in. It concentrates the corrosion in that one point creating pinholes.
