Most hardware stores - and certainly Menards and Home Depot - should sell a
product called liquid electrical tape.  It's similar to the liquid plastic
product that Mark Zen mentioned, but may flow into cracks and crevices a
little better. 
* Caveat *-  I haven't used liquid electrical tape on my Yakima rack - but
it seems as though it should work as well as anything else.  (The crossbars
on my Yakima rack are so rusted that they will have to be replaced.  But
I'm going to try to nurse them through their 9th Midwest salt season before
I replace them)
