Default Got a WS Exhaust, has scratches on tube, paint work?

Well yeah, I got my Apex'i WS II today.... unfortunately, there are some scratches through the powder coat on 2 of the pipe peices... It isnt huge, I mean they are like an inch long on each one... but I was counting on that coat to help prevent rust here in Ohio.

Can I use some sort of High Temp Paint to cover these scratches to protect it? or am I just screwed? Everything I have read about high temp paint on exhaust tubes/headers seems to say that it will come off.

Thank you.

i think that eventually it will come off due to excessive heat, but you could coat and and see if it dosent work, just keep up with checking it when u got your car up on the jacks(changing oil)
