Default Rust on Frangipani in Brisbane

Does anyone know how to deal with the problem of rust on frangipani, it
has become a problem for me over the past few years and everything i
try does not seem to work


You are careful to not wet the leaves when you water it are you?
While waiting for better advice, have you tried the milk + water spray?
One part of full cream milk to 8 parts water should do. Try it on the
leaves of one of your frangis to test whether it's going to work for you.
Apply fortnightly. Or weekly if you are really keen. :-)

I suppose there is such a thing as some frangis being more prone to
rust than others.
