Hi all.  I've got a '97 and the pipes look faily good for their age, but the headers could look alot better.  They're blue and there is a little pitting.  Is there anything that'll get the blueing off?  What's the best way to clean them up and what products work best?

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

I used to think "Blueaway" was a good solution. Haven't tried it since 1972, and I don't remember getting very good results. Mine are blue, also....I decided it just adds character.....

Yes Blue-Away works BUT you need a lot of elbow grease to get them clean. It can be picked at just about and stealership for around $12 for 1/2 oz.

Blue Away is an abrasive. It will remove the blue and dull the chrome in the process.
