How do i clean/polish my ss header

[CHID0]

I have a DC stainless steel header that i got used from someone on v6p, when i got it it was pretty clean/shiny. After about 6 months or so of use it started to turn brown kinda looking like it's oxidizing. How do i clean or polish it to make it look like new? Heres a pic:

i dont think you can, it just turns that color over time.

You can try mother mags polish.

Steelwool, or a wire wheel on a dremel or something. You really have to scrub at it but it just ends up turning brown again.

alright....no big deal i guess. I'll just leave it

u could do what blkcurrant said, but it'll turn back in a few months anyways

probably not worth the time unless i was showing.....but, is heat wrap a bad thing. I know it explicitly says the the warranty on the header is void if heat wrap is used on it.....

 

[DarkSideAccord]

yes, heat wraps will shorten the life of the header from excessive heat... it'll crack easier with the wrap... i have it on my celica, but the header is OEm camry header.... so far so good...

Flat Black Jet Hot Coating?? I think they have a chrome-ish looking Jet Hot coating too.
