I'm not to familiar with the ceramic coating but I think an S.O.S. pad (steel wool with a detergant )should remove the spots. The ceramic coating should be hard enough to take it. I would guess the rust spots are just on the surface.
The best way to prevent them; don't drive in the rain or snow .

Is your ceramic coating Jet-Coat? If so I thought they had a real good garantee.

You may try to sand (as suggested) and then add some of that silver high-temp exhasut paint. It wont FIX the problem, but may help a bit.

I had my headers Jet Hot coated inside and out, and hopefully wont be going thru that problem (once installed).
