Cleaning Headers
 

Hey guys,

I just picked up a set of Borla UEL Headers used from a buddy. Before I install them I would like to give them a quick refresh. I've looked around a bit, but I haven't found much on this topic. Does anyone have an idea on how to clean up your headers; Inside and Out?

Thank you

What do you hope to gain by cleaning them inside and out?

You could always sandblast the exterior and have them ceramic coated.

Probably to make them cleaner than before. That's why I clean things

I'd just prefer to install clean parts on my car. It's obviously not going to give any improvements other than my peace of mind.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll probably stay away from the ceramaic coating though as eventually I will probably go FI and have to get new headers anyway.

They will get dirty anyways! Unless you are cleaning the part on regular basis, there will be fa benefit. Also, for a part that you or anyone can't see, I think you are just wasting your time. If you want them cleaned, do the ceramic coating and they will stay clean all the time!

How about some good old fashioned soapy hot water. Maybe pretreat with a squirt of 409 or something like that.

Headers without a coating or wrap get hot.
