Cleaned/Polished my Bandit header (Before/After Pics)

[JSP]

Came out great. Not perfect but dang nice compared to before. Non scratch scotchbrite pad with some mothers metal polish. TONS of elbow grease. I am sore as crap and cannot hold my arm up.

This is just the first phase. I can only reach so much with my fingers. I will wait a few weeks to see if it holds nice and clean/shiny before putting anymore work into them. Very happy with the results.

Here is a comparison with only one pipe done...

Here is all 4 done...

You can see down at the collector I need to work on more. In time.. Slowly working on cleaning here up piece by piece.

Saw somewhere about cleaning the silicon off after polishing with alcohol. I've polished my headers a couple of times and after a few rides, stains again. Thinking that it's the silicon in the wash n wax I'm using.

I'll definitely keep an eye out for it. THanks.
