Touching up galvanized steel to Mil spec

Is there a touch up product for galvanized steel that would not be in conflict with MIL Standards? I know there is Rust-oleum product that could be bought at Home Depot but I don't know if it is to Mil Standards.

Which standard do you refer to?

What is "Mil Standard"? Does it have a number?

Zinc rich paint touch up for very small areas is accepted under many international standards for galvanizing, but not heard of MIL.
