Default Slight Rust Around Ghia Tailgate Chrome Trim, How To Prevent Getting Worse?

I have just bought a 2003 Focus TDCI Ghia estate in mint condition and with a lowish mielage (57K) and FFSH from a main Ford dealer for a reasonable price. I am really pleased with the car however I have noticed a minimal amount of rust around the tailgate trim chrome handle thingy. I was planning on taking this off if it is easy to do and probably rubbing it down and touching it up. I was wondering how would I prevent water sitting there again? Use some clear silicone mastic or is there another way? I was also wondering how do I figure what colour the paint is, as I would rather not buy a touch-up pen from a main stealer. The car is a kind of metallic silver colour with a hint of blue/grey. Love the colour. Great car cannot fault it so far just hope it stays that way
