What kind of header is that? It looks like some kind of cleaner was put on it while the header was super hot and perma-stained it. It looks like that is something you can't "clean" off. But maybe there is something. Have you tried steel whool or anything? It prolly won't ever be super shiny like it used to be.

 

Try ultra fine 1000 grit steel wool.

beat me to it.

 

i put NOTHIN on the header to attempt to clean it ... the rain did this to my header

 

its prolly a cheap header, cheap finish

 

well here it is... finished product






and now after driving it for a week.... turned gold

and now few more days after that started to turn sh!tty...



i used 1200 grit, this will leave slight scratches, if using 2000 grit no scratches will show

 

get a heatshield and then you wont have to look at it anymore

 

so what d exactly did you use

 

looks good

HAHA

 

thats a good job! too bad it didnt stay like that though. At least it looks better than what it was whne u first started

 

good job noob!

 

as said above, i used 1200 grit wet n dry and a bucket full of warm water and stainless steel polish.

 

Buy ceramic, problem solved.
