Anyone know of a way to make the welds in galvanized fence tubing rustproof?

I use this:

I would think the zinc in the tubing would transfer to the welded joint.

No, the zinc transfers straight to your nostrils. If you plan on
having a long career in welding, DO NOT BREATHE THE FUMES.

Any
thoughts appreciated. TIA Ted
