Default Best paint for steel garage door with minor rust

Hello,

I have a steel garage door on my house that I had installed about 14
years ago. It was nothing fancy, just your average steel garage door.
It was white when I got it and I never painted it. Other than some
minor rust at the very bottom edge of the door, it is in very good
shape (no flakey paint or anything). The rust at the bottom seems to
be more of a discoloration than an actual pitting.

Is there some kind of paint I can put along the bottom edge of the door
to keep the rust from spreading? I really don't want to paint the whole
door. I thought maybe if I sanded it a little and used Rustoleum
primer and some Rustoleum white paint over that it would work. Needless
to say, I don't know anything about paint or garage doors. Any
recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for any
suggestions.

Roberta
