My DC stainless header is just starting to change color (currently goldish) and some small scratches are starting to show. Must of hit it with the wratchet when I was putting it in. Nothing deep, just minor surface abrasions.

Any product out there that will polish them out to a mirror finish, without cause more harm than good?

Sand it. Start with 230 and repeat with finer paper, ie 320, 400, 600. Follow up with polish, it'll look better than new.
