Get them ceramic coated and polish the ceramic coating If you just polish a steel header it will rust and corrode like crazy.

It will not burn off but it will not perform the same as a true ceramic coating.

Get them sandblasted so that the metal is as clean as possible. After that, follow the instructions on the can.
