Need temp fix around Windshield

I've got an area of rust around the top passenger side of 60 suburban. It's about an inch by 3-4". At some point I'll pull the windshield and fix correctly, but until then any ideas? It seriously might get gorilla tape, but I'm trying to keep from being ghetto looking.

Maybe rust kill spray, then jb weld molded and filed?

Re: Need temp fix around Windshield

Is the water entering from the rain gutter with cracked caulking? If so temp seal or cleanout rain gutter and recaulk. I used 3m water based tube caulk with gutter cleaned out before painting.

No clue why it's there, but doesn't appear to be coming from gutter. I do plan on cleaning gutters, priming and re-applying new seam sealer when the temps come up a bit. I'll then hit with paint to seal that and hopefully be able to hide that repair...
