Default Rotor rust....

Does anyone here know if there is a product/chemical to apply to your rotors to prevent rust ? Don't tell me to drive the car as you know they sit for 3-4 months during Chicago winter.

alot of it has do do with when you wash the car. If you go to a dealer look at the rusted up rotors on the cars the wash every day, more water equals more rust
