Chrome is only micro-meters thick. What seems to work well for a long time, can still slowly break the Chrome down.

In this case we are talking about stainless steel headers. I would never recommend using Stain Magic on chrome. It is formulated for stainless steel.

I have to admit, I haven't checked carefully. Would anybody know which CB1100 parts are actually made of stainless steel ? On the 2017 and later, Spokes I know, what else ?
And need a little help in translation it seems. What do you call headers ? The pipes from the cylinder heads to the catalytic converter ? Or am I totally off ? Thanks !
