It's been on the car for about 2000 miles now and has fingerprints on it and other spots... is it possible to make it come out that gold/purple colour???

 

Nope...too late.

Sorry!

 

LIAR!!! I read is some past thread that you can use a product called WENOL to turn it a nice bronze color. Should be able to find it at Target, etc. Good Luck! Mine is still a dark bronze color, but no fingerprints because I cleaned it with rubbing alcohol .

 

OK!

 

Use WENOL as stated above. It works great. give a rub down with alcohol after you're done with the wenol.

 

You can use any metal cleaner...

Brought back that new shine on a friends spoon headers.

 

why alcohol?

 

I have pollished my Spoon header twice already and each time it has been brought back to a very light bronze finish.

Figure to spend about an hour or more working on it if you want good results.

The products mentioned above will do nicely, but I imagine there are dozens of great products out there. Look for an abrasive cream polish vs. a liquid based polish. I would look for something that comes out of a toothpaste tube.

Regards,

 

What dept do you get the Wenol from; the auto or household. I can't find it.

 

i just went through this. i installed it without wiping it down before starting it. it was nasty after a few times of driving it. un-luckily i blew my clutch, so while the car was up in the air, i removed the header and polished it with mothers metal polish. it came out looking like brand new! but, this time i wiped it down with brakeclean and it came out a perfect bonze color after starting. i have since wiped it down after i work on the car, or check the oil. there is no way to stop the bronzing of the header, but if you are careful, you can keep it uniform. good luck.
