Polishing up the pipes

[Nachodaddy]

I was at an automotive trade show through the weekend, and stopped at a display for Flitz Polish. As you can imagine, the rep in the booth was showing how well Flitz worked on different metal surfaces.

I talked to him about stainless headers, and he demonstrated on a piece of header pipe using a piece of paper towel to rub it in. I asked about that as opposed to a microfiber or a cloth towel. He said something about the wood fibers in the paper making it an ideal polishing material.

He gave me a ketchup packet-sized sample of Flitz, and suggested that I try it on my headers with a paper towel. I gave it a shot last night, and it looks pretty good. Granted, I keep my pipes polished, so there was just a slight tinge of gold on them, but it came off very quickly. Might have to buy some Flitz!

Dang, Gone, that is nice. Might try that myself.
