Default Cleaning up exh mani/exh housing/o2 housing

how would you go about doing this?

i used a 3m green brush a while back on an o2 housing and it hasn't rusted (been in a box in the garage though, not in the elements).

was wondering if anyone else has done this and how

thanks

there isnt really much you can do to make it last besides jet hot coating. everything will turn, fade, rust, etc. Even ceramic coating, I will never ceramic coat another turbo housing or part again.

they turn white/grey and look like shit. Godforbid if you touch a greasy hand on it after its been heat cycled a good bit or try to clean it. turbos see too much heat for ceramic coat to stay new.
