That's a real stupid thing to do.
Copper RTV is only good for like 700F intermittent - see package.
It turns to dust on a rotary exhaust, unless you're talking about fasteners back in the rear muffler.

Also, no locking washer on the market can handle high heat.
Locking exhaust nuts are the only solution.
