You can clean them up, mask off the parts of the rotors and spray the rest with high heat spray paint. They will rust again though, even if you paint them when they're new.

my rotor top hats and edges are powder coated from manufacture, they have not rusted and have been rockin them for about two years now no issues, bought brand new calipers and masked and painted them off car about a year ago with no rusting issues there either, if they were going to rust would have happened by now because my rear drums which are newer are rusted already so i would say powder coat is the way to go with the top hats and edges if its that big a deal
