Agreed ceramic is probably the best, but it doesn't always last, I was super careful not to scratch my coating and it still rusted around the welds within a year.
On my third gen I had painted headers ( some flat black coating ) and the look like crap after a few weeks. I pulled them off and painted them with Eastwood exhaust paint and it held up nicely.
On my 4th gen I have jethot coating and it started to rust around the welds at the collectors in a year. I repainted then with the product below and it is still in good shape.

This does nothing to protect the header, Jethot coats inside and out so the headers last, the paint only makes them look pretty.
