Rusted Muffler Pipes

The muffler pipes from the rear muffler section look rusty but still solid on my '00 E320. Is there a recommended way to clean them and protect them from additional rust?

I heard that an undercoating might be useful. What do you guys think?

RE: Rusted Muffler Pipes

Brush off the rust with a Wire brush, and then use some rust inhibitor on the affected areas. Once it has dried, spray on some (chose your colour) Very High Temperature Paint (VHTP), which is available at most hardware stores.

You should be good for a few 1000 miles.

Easy[:)]
