If you ever want to use them again in that planter DO NOT paint as the paint will keep the seeds from sliding into the slots. With it being a cotton planter as against a corn planter I have no idea what the plates look like so do not know if a plastic plate would even be avaible. I do know from the parts books the hoppers for the 247 are different than the 246 that is the corn only version that I had. I have cleaned rusty plates with just a wire brush on the grindstone arbor. And I have never had a plate that got that rusty I needed to do anything with, the plates I had to clean were in old boughten planters. If they were going to be someplace that they would rust that much I would just whipe them down with cooling oil, By the time you would need them it would have dissapered enough you would not have a problem.
