Default Header question

Anyone know about copper coatings that come in a can? I bought a cheap heddman header for my crx si and I need to improve the quality of the paper gasket that comes with it that connects the header and collector. I've had trouble with anybody fabricating a copper piece and I don't have the skill/tools to do it myself. Any other suggestions would be great. Thanks.

I was looking for something more along the lines making the gasket last longer. Thanks for the advice. You know if any kragen or auto store sells that stuff?

Couldn't you just use an o.e.m gasket?

Wish that were the case. Have an after market header that uses a shitty gasket.

I wish that were the case, but most after market headers make there fitment below the header different than stock.
