Good rust paint.

Good afternoon, Ladies and Gentlemen.

Totally not car-related, but I was hoping to pick the brains of you clever people.
Towards the back of the year, after the grass stops growing, I was hoping to paint the pressed-steel deck of my lawn mower, which is showing advanced stages of rust. Totally my own fault for leaving the wet grass cuttings stuck underneath and holding the moisture.
A few years back I would probably have had no reservations about using Hammerite paint, but I've heard it's not the paint it used to be and nowhere near as effective.
The finish has not got to luck perfect, so brush painting will be fine, as long as it holds off the rust a little longer.
All recommendations for rust killer and paint gratefully received.
