are there ways to prevent this from happening? I'm sick of having to change the exhaust every couple years

Get a stainless steel exhaust.

Really, that's the only permanent solution.

This, or use stove paint on it before you put it on the car.

>>14794956
Rub it down using a sander.

Then apply some Red Oxide primer:

Make sure you've properly sanded it down using 300 grit sandpaper before painting with the red oxide primer.

Once you've done this, you can paint it black, silver or even blue.

Black may look best though.

All of this being said, I'd probably replace it with a stainless steel or titanium-look tip.

The Red oxide primer will stop it from rusting.

However, you MUST sand it down and remove all of the surface debris before applying primer.

Awesome advices so far, thank you guys

Exhausts rust from the inside just as much as they do from the outside. Stainless is the only solution.

At least you don't have to worry about your heat wrap killing your fucking headers! Ohh god I'm on my thrid set in 2 years.

/o/ is /mlp/ lite.

Spray a liberal amount of rust-proofing oil on the exhaust. WD-40 sprayed into the muffler helps repel condensation, but you have to use a lot.

Ford trucks came with stainless exhaust but they steal rust out after 10+ years

That's a really weird spot to put an exhaust pipe.

that sounds like too much work.

POR15, can be applied directly to rust. It actually sticks better on rust that it does on bare metal.

If you are painting bare metal, you must use their zinc spray to promote rust growth.

only prep is degreasing, and removing rust flakes.

stainless steel pipes.

Stainless is the only way to go. Expensive, so if you are going to keep the car, worth it. I have had my techtonics stainless for 8 years. Car has some rust, exhaust looks new.
