Default Touch up paint!

Hey guys. Just bought a 2001 Sienna Pearl Cherokee XJ Sport. It has just a little bit of rust on the paint. What should I do to get rid of the rust, and where/what should I buy for touch up paint. I'm looking for a very cheap solution. Thanks!

If the rust hasnt eatin thru, autozone has some spray i think its called like rust be gone or rust away, cant remember, but it sprays on and takes it right off like never there, bottle is white with orange writting. Also look on ur driver door sticker it will tell ur paint code to match the paint, prolly try jeep dealer or maybe AZ can get it, I found my purple at AZ

Here's what it looks like, not bad. Will it affect the paint? And do I need to do any prepping before I touch up? Thanks!
