[TowerTalk] patching up rust on a tower?

[Phil Snyder]

Gary, Please share any responses with the list. I am looking at my own 
used tower and although it is already up I am considering "sprucing" it 
up this year.

I'm wondering what the best way to protect that rust area is to insure I get another 20 or so years out of it!  Is there any product out there to replace that 'galvanization'?  Doesn't look bad... looks like a couple 18" long stripes of rust about an inch or so wide.
