Any tips on how best to deal with this:

(dishwasher wire rack plastic coating perished, rusting)


As a quick and dirty fix where there is a "free" end, I would be
inclined to remove all the loose coating and the worst of the rust, and
fit a length of "sticky heat shrink" over the wire, extending slightly
beyond the end of the metal. With any luck, the glue will seal the end.

or angle grind the rusted end off & apply epoxy. Rust at joints is a much bigger problem than ends though.
