A bit over 2000k and headers and cats back to the y Junction are blue, but nearly black. Does anyone have a magic concoction to remove the aforementioned coating. Or is it a result of crappy stainless? Therefore, keeping it clean every 2000k is a waste of time?? Thanks in anticipation.

I used a product called Purple, available at most auto outlets. Does a brilliant job. Below is a picture of my 41 year old classic I had, pipes were horrible when I got it. Took me many months by hand to get them right and thats how they stayed. Used to do the Ural occasionally. A little time consuming at first but when done will be easy to maintain. Good luck. Jake  |

Jake Thanks Jake. Wasn't sure you were still with us. Great to hear from you. I wanted to ask some details about the battery you had for your winch? Can you pm me? |

Mine were black when I got them unfortunately. Every attempt to make them look nice has failed and I gave up.
Good Luck.

Mine always end up brown from mud stain. 🤣. But they will clean up if you have time to burn.

Having spent about 10 days applying "Purple" every now and then. This where I am, so far. Once done I'm told subsequent cleaning is much easier. Mine went Honey, Blue and then a horrible rusty brown/black from the cyl head to just after the 2nd Cat. Its not finished yet. But is looking much better.  |
