Default New rear disks, hubs already rusty!

Have brand new standard rear disks on the back with the Subaru 2 pot caliper. Hubs are already really rusty. is there anything can be done to prevent it or make them look better?

Hammerite, that is a good idea. The rust is ridiculous. My old disks were on there for ages. Couldn't believe how quick these have rusted. Looks terrible.
