I just got back from an automotive trade show, where I picked up a few samples of Flitz brand polish. I like to keep the headers on my '13 in perfect mirror-finish, which is easy to do once you make the effort to get them shiny the first time. After about three long rides, I notice a slight gold tinge to them, along with small black dots near the cylinder heads. About 10 minutes of polishing brings them back.
Call me OCD.
I've always heard that Flitz is the shiznit, but I have always used Blue Magic, which is cheap and easily available at Walmart. I was tempted to buy a large jar of Flitz at the "show special" of $37, which would amount to two eight-buck jars of Blue Magic.
Glad I saved my money. I used the Flitz samples yesterday on my pipes, and while it easily removed the gold, it wouldn't take the dots away. A few swipes with my cheaper polish and they were gone.
