Where exactly are you talking about? Underbody, or rear quarter panel? Either way, keep it clean really.

For the underbody you can clean it and then spray it with something like THIS. And for the rear quarter panel, just keep it clean and waxed. That should do the trick.

So yeah, just make sure that you have no rust to start with. I.E. Under plastic trim, inside of the car and under. If there isn't any just keep it clean and dry. Wax it every so often and you should be golden! The main thing is to not let stuff stay on the paint. Road salt, and crap like that. If it gets on there just get it off and dont let it stay for a week. If you can do that you should stay rust free.
