Couple of Scratches - Will Klasse stop rust

I've got 3 scratches around 1-2 inches long that I have yet to touch up. If I don't plan to *touch up* until the spring, will it be okay. I'm planning on prepping the car for winter this weekend, with a full detail and 2-3 coats of Klasse SG.
 
I would not count on it. A couple of car washes and the protection will be gone. Why not just slap on some paint to protect the metal for now, then do a better looking job when spring arrives? Even still, my guess is any rust can be sanded off or removed with a rust remover product. Shouldn't be a big deal.
 
Yeah, you don't want to find that it's getting worse in the middle of winter. For a quick, easy, temporary(?) fix, *I* would treat the scratches with a rust converter (paint it on as if it were touchup paint) and THEN seal it with the AIO/SG. I've had this last for years when I never got around to topcoating it with "real" paint.
