Default Ceramic Coat Cleaning?

I want to clean/polish up up my LTs before they get installed. They have a very light rustyness to them at the lower portion and collector. I wasnt sure if anyone had used something with good results?..

I had the same look on my headers after having to daily drive my car for about 3 months. I got underneath it and used some stuff called Never Dull by Mother's. It worked like a champ, look good as new..

You can pretty much use never dull on anything. It is handy because u dont need a rag to apply it just to wipe it off.

The rust will just come back since the coating is gone in that spot you might be better up saving for some stainless steel headers if you are that worried about appearance.
