sand the rust off and coat well with oil before and after use. If that doesn't work, just buy a new grate.
16.95 at Hpme Depot for a brand new Weber 22.5" grate. Don't spray paint a cooking grate... you should get grounded for a week for posting it.
If you are really fussy about the appearance then get it sandblasted and immediately(still warm from blasting) veg oil it. Oil it the first few times of use. I would save the painted grill for a MIL that you don't need!!
Oil is your friend in the fight against rust!! :biggrin:
