What to do with Paint Chips.

What is the best thing to do with paint chips on a '86 world sport. The bike came with several that went down to metal and had rust. I cleaned out most of them with some wet sanding and 2000 grit sand paper. I was thinking about either applying some white primer (then they would at least match the other chips and scatches that did not go down to metal) or attemping to find touch up paint and going through the whole routine with sanding, polish, and wax. A new paint job is not in my budget nor do I have the motivation, this is more of an ongoing tinkering. Thanks.
