I routinely use rust converter and recommend it for both the OP's bike and the Raleigh as well. It makes a great primer before applying any touch up paint. I pretty much ALWAYS use it prior to touch up. The product I use dries black, so for minor touch up on a black bike, I am done once I use the converter.
