I had the same issue, I replaced the original export rendering with a custom one before I started. So I just named the columns I wanted to exclude with a name starting with Action, set the Header text to anything you want.
.RemoveRenderingEngine("export") .AddRenderingEngine("export", typeof(TabDelimitedRenderingEngine)) .WithAuthorizationType(AuthorizationType.AllowAnonymous) .AddColumns(cols => { cols.Add("Action1").WithHeaderText("")

Then on the RenderingEngine, I excluded any column that started with the word Action
