Removing burned tip color of HKS exhaust
I have the HKS exhaust with the burned tips(titanium looking). I bought it used and as far as I know there is no NON-burned tips available.
I want to remove the blue on the tips (it's Stainless steel so it should be possible) but I don't want to mess up the finish. The blue doesn't work with my car at all. Does anyone know a product that I can use for this or how to do it properly? |
Heat.
But it will probably mess up the finish. The temperatures and specific process used by some companies to create the burnt look are closely guarded secrets and not easily replicated from what I've seen. |
Its comes off very easy, steel wool, Coca-Cola, scrub it off. 3000 grit sand paper works aswell,
then finish it off with some nice metal polish/chrome polish. |
Oh... I think I misunderstood. You are just trying to remove the color entirely? I was thinking you wanted to change the color.
Evo has it... I'd use the 3000 grit sand paper and finish it off with some metal polish :tup: |

Yes! I want to make them silver, completely remove the blue. Is there a metal polish you would recommend? I've never done something like this before. |
