I remember a few threads that had mentioned this one thing you can buy at Kmart to polish the header to make it look like new. What was it? I searched but all the ones only mentioned Eagle 1. I would like to try to remove the blue/purple from it and see if it can stay a crisp golden brown. Thanks.

 

try brasso it works on brass type looking things and your Spoon header has the same kind of finish. JUst my .02

 

Phat Bastard recommended WENOL once. I never used it, the purple color doesn't bother me

 

Yeah, that's the one...I will go buy it and see if it works. I like the purple but the way it's on my header makes it look dirty.

 

Autosol is the stuff I have. It's a metal polish that I picked up at an autoparts store.

 

would that get rid of the blue marks on the Header?.....

 

I want to fix this:


fixed by Hybrid ctr

 

It is gonna take alot of elbow grease to take that chit out. And since your header is already installed, getting your elbow in there is gonna be tough.

EDIT: Nice Spoon header.

i hope those marks weren't made by me

 

I used a product called Flitz...you can get it at any marine store...works great, but it's expensive

 

For thisget this

I purchased my spoon header used and it looked similar to yours when I got it, now it looks almost like new

Larkin whos header is still lookin' pretty in the closet until he comes up w/ fund for type one b-pipe

Yep, Blue Away is what you want. Made specifically to remove the "blue". Very easy to use and doesn't take long at all!

Off to the store this week to get blue away.

 

If you can't find it at a store, I'd go here http://www.j-pcycles.com/shop/group....LID=23&DPID=98 or go to any online motorcycle store.

 

sorry to bring this back from the dead..but where can u buy the blue away?

 

most golf shops will have them...

check here: http://www.golfsmith.com/ps/ppage.php?stynum=463

this stuff works great!

 

blue away works great wonders, there is also some kind of marine polish thats works great as well.

 

metal polish

 

Get a heat shield

 

but everyone needs a lil bling blingin

 

I suggest using WENOL.

Here is a good article for cleaning headers with Wenol that I found on google.

YOU NEED TO USE ELBOW GREASE!! Wimps need not apply.

Damn, Dennis, you'll be better off just getting a heatshield made.

 

Mine looks worse than that and will continue to look that way cause I don't like cutting my hand trying to polish the damn thing after it has already been installed.

 

I think I have the result here somewhere...let me get it. I used blue away and it rocks.

Brasso does absolutely nothing for the header but great on faucets and pipes.
