I want to refurb my SS exhaust headers but not sure whether to just get them blasted, or use the Harpic/Autosol method? Would blasting achieve the same/better results?
First two pictures show after Harpic but still not perfect, was thinking of buying polishing kit of eBay
A bit late to the party but I wanted a set of 996 pipes polished. I thought getting them blasted first would be a good idea. The polisher however tore a strip off me and to be fair, the blasting didn’t produce the affect I’d envisaged. Andy
Camcoat want £235 plus VAT, that seems quite steep to be honest. Will check with Zirtech or just order polishing kit
I ended up getting mine aquablasted, they are now decent but "silver" and it didn't remove all the pitting in tricky areas.
I think you will be surprised at how well and quickly they come back to shiny shiny with some electrically powered polishing. Then if you use "blue off" and a little auto sol once in a while the problem is fixed.
Sent my rsv4 pipes to camcoat....they lasted about a week before everything that stuck to them wouldnt come off....shit. The cerakote on my zed has just gone through its second winter...
If you want to have a go yourself, Scottish brit on an orbital sander will remove that and leave a nice satin finish which you can then polish up if you want.
