Summit Racing has this to use for polishing your headers. Did some checking on it and read a bunch of testimonials seems to be the real deal.
I just ordered it for my headers because the cleaning stuff I was told to use to get the anti-sieze off of them before I started the car spoted the headers up pretty bad.

Car Chemistry CGHP6 - Car Chemistry Cerma-Glow Metallic Ceramic Header Polish

It's only $11.95

Thought you guys might want to know about it. I will post before and after pictures once I have it and do it! I plan to use the Mothers wheel polishing tool on my drill to make it easier.

I will post a pic of them before I start and after it is done because I have no doubt in my mind there will be a big difference because the cleaner I used on the header's spoted them up pretty bad look's like there are covered in hard water spot's right now.

SW said to use Power Purple to get the anti-sieze off of them and that is why I need to repolish them in the first place.

One of the guys at SW said to use the Purple Power cleaner they sell at AutoZone to clean the anti-sieze off of them and the cleaner is what made them look like that.

But unfortunatly New England weather has a way of messing things up when you don't have a garage to keep the car in when not in use for the winter.

Besides give a guy some time have plan's to do something special on a lot of the engine parts that should make it pop pretty good. Just want all of the part's for the car that I planed to put on her this year first. Then the dress up work.

I should have pic's posted soon of the before and after look together so every one can see the end result's. The thing I like is it is made to with stand high heat so there is no burning look from the polish when the car is running unlike most metal polish's

I will be doing a second coat tomarrow so I am sure they will look even better then. Just ran out of light outside do get everythig done and wanted to take her for a run after being out of action for 8 days.
