Little-known facts about rust:

This armor will never rust: leather armor, studded leather armor, elven
cloak, shield, pair of gloves.

A rust monster will not affect armor that is -1 or lower.  You can keep
on your -1 helmet without fearing rusties; it won't add to your armor
class but will help against falling rocks in the maze.

When you read a scroll of enchant armor while confused, your armor will
become rustproof ("Your %s glows silver for a moment.").  If you read a
scroll of destroy armor while confused, your armor will not be
destroyed, but will lose its rustproofing ("Your %s glows purple for a
moment.")  However, armor which will never rust (listed above) will
continue to never rust.

You can also rustproof a weapon by reading a scroll of enchant weapon
while confused.  A scroll of damage weapon, read while confused,
removes the rustproofing.  A rustproofed weapon cannot be corroded when
used against an acid blob.
