How To Polish Headers To Perfection

[@Nceb]

Thanks for this video. I used 400, 600, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000n and Blue Magic metal polish, and my 2019 Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE LT's exhaust and heads is back to brand new again. Before I started the bike up, I used isopropyl alcohol and wiped everything down to remove all oil and polish from the heads and exhaust. It's like I have a brand new exhaust, and the headers are catching my eyes again. 🥰 It took me 4 hours to do it, because I made sure to sand everything once, so I don't have to do this for another couple of years, hopefully.

[@Motogents]

You are welcome. I am so glad that you try this and that you are happy with the results, a little elbow grease goes a long way .This is the reason I make youtube videos.👊✊👌

[@jamespolucha8790]

Fantastic, can’t believe it came out better then new

[@Motogents]

Yeah they come out really really good 👊✊💨

Greetings from America. Thanks for making this video, it was very helpful.

[@Motogents]

I am so glad to hear that,thank you for watching 👊🏼✊🏼💨

[@endo9913]

Excellently explained and demonstrated! Many thanks.

[@Motogents]

Thank you man that really means a lot 👊👊👊

I would have stopped after the 1200 sand paper... looks better with a brushed aluminum look than mirror finish imo

[@Motogents]

Yeap you could leave it on 1200,i was thinking the same but i just wanted to see how shiny i could get them 🤣

[@user-yx3nh4lc8b]

Nice 👍

[@georgerosa2070]

Great video, I have an 08 FZ6 that needs this desperately and a Ducati scrambler with a surprisingly rough finish on it's pipes.

[@Motogents]

Tnx man that means a lot,if you have time this is preaty rewardnig DIY.

[@anthonyw1583]

awesome result!!, anyway my question is, will this process damage the header in the long run? some said using different method like using harpic 10x would remove the chrome. in short the headers will corrode easy and short lived (if its true though). and by the way, is that just a clean water? or water with soap?

[@N269]

Well, it's true, it is hard work! Nice job. 👍

[@Motogents]

Yes it is but results are very rewarding 👊

[@Motogents]

Tax man glad you like it 👊

[@tooyoungtobeold8756]

Thanks for the video Esier with the pipes off the bike though. I'm not taking my exhausts off to clean them. I just use 'Dr Downpipe' but I don't get what you're are getting.

[@scotty2221]

What can I use to clean and polish my exhausts pipes and the muffle on my 2023 1250GS?

Really nice job. Will this polishing creme work on stainless steel?

[@Motogents]

Tnx man,yeap i pretty sure it will work on SS.

[@MegaCountach]

Nice work, thanks!

[@Motogents]

Tnx man , that means a lot 👊🏼

[@chrisg2888]

What would happen if I just used the 600 paper ?

[@Motogents]

You will have problem polishing it to mirror finish.

[@bikesandfamily3082]

Awesome vid. How long did you sand before moving up grit?

[@Motogents]

Tnx man i really appreciate it,i can't give you the exact time frame,you will feel when its time to move to next grit. I hope that makes sense.

[@miowiemiowie7784]

I love your video

[@Motogents]

Tnx man,that means a lot 👊✊💨

[@zmijas90PL]

Good video. How much time did the whole process took?

[@Motogents]

Tnx mate,I don't know exactly but for sure one day proces,it is time consuming all that sanding. If the time is problem for you and your headers are not in very bad shape a have another video on my channel, it is very fast and if done right the results are awsome.

[@markopopovic2535]

Damn, that’s shiny

[@NickandJoe1234]

Mate, great job! Will this also remove gold and blue from stainless steel headers?

[@Motogents]

Tnx man,give it a shoot it is a little time consuming but results are awsome 👊🏼

[@Ladosligese]

how long did this last before it went brown again ?

[@Motogents]

Hello mate,i think like a whole season,but it got puprle blue and yellow from one trackday 🤣

[@Ladosligese]

[@PepsyTV]

one question, how hey look now on your moto ?

[@Motogents]

Now they look even better,they got goldish color but the shine is still there.

[@PepsyTV]

@@Motogents thanks for the reply I will make mines this winter when the motorcycle hibernates 😅

[@Motogents]

@@PepsyTV Yeap it will be a fun winter project. If you have any questions when you start feel free to ask.

[@PepsyTV]

@@Motogents thanks mate can't wait to polish hem because they ruin all the good looking 😅, tanks again and ride safe

[@fredericemmelmann6525]

Are those original chromed headers?

[@Motogents]

Yeap this are the original headers,but they are not chromed,they are just polished.

[@nickwhiting20021]

Good job, what polishing compound did you use ?

[@Motogents]

Tnx man,i have link in decription box take a look 👊🏼

[@fazleyismail]

[@stealthworks9758]

How does it keep up with time?

[@Motogents]

It looks awsome,even better the headers got goldish color but the shine is still there .

[@stealthworks9758]

@@Motogents Nice! Probably going to do the same to mine! So in order Acid-->Sand Paper-->Polish if I am not wrong

[@Motogents]

@@stealthworks9758 Yeap that's it,but if your headers are not in very bad shape you can skip acid part and just go with sanding and polish.

[@Ladosligese]

@@Motogents sweet ty for the info .. ill 100 % be doing this to my bike

[@jafarideschamps5345]

How long did it last??

[@Motogents]

Shine will last long time, but color of the pipies will change very fast after one ride will start to go a little yellow but that is normal due to heat cycles of the engine. On my headers the first bend get a blue and puprle color.

[@jafarideschamps5345]

@@Motogents Ok good to know definitely gonna tackle this now. Thanks for weighing in.
