Does anyone grease there car or truck rather than re-paint?

I use WD-40 to "wash" my motorcycles and jeep, and put a dab of grease on any rust area. I've also had great luck with a marine product called 6-56. It is like WD-40 only stays longer, and it shoots out a tube like WD-40 so you can get those hard to reach places.

I usually rag off the excess and don't have any problems with slippery/dirty surfaces.

My new '77 D100 has some big surface rust patches and I was thinking of either:

1) POR-15 primer then a coat of red
2) cheepo paint job
3) lube it up and let it be as God made it.

I would remove the surface rust with Sand paper first.
Then use a organic derusting product to chemically neutralize the rust.
Afterward you will see the surface coating of blackened, powdered metal.
Simply wipe this off and spray some good primer on the area.
This should do, until you decide to paint the truck.
