The cerakote is made to minimize rust in harsh environments: exhaust systems, parts on boats, sand. It's thin but very hard. It has a better chance of not rusting than any other clear coat, as it does not require a primer. That said, if it's scratched, that would be a point of rust egress.
I am not saying rust can never happen with these, but I will say we have not seen rust on the cerakote stems yet. The version of the stem that you have had a clear coat enamel, which, lacking a primer, was going to eventually rust underneath. If you would like, send your old stem, and I'll send it with our next batch to the cerakoter. We can do satin black or clear.
