No, we are running great.... me like a dummy grabbed the #4 header pipe and now I have a burned right hand. Let's hear someone else's problem.

Ah , you learned the hard way . Spit test . You spit on your finger , and DAB the pipe quickly . When it's running right , it'll burn off almost INSTANTLY . You know , for future reference ....

My method is to either spit directly on the pipe (field-expedient) or if I'm at home, to use water in a squirt bottle. Beats the heck out of leaving behind skin on the pipe!

Make sure you put some antibiotic salve of some sort on the burns, as they are very prone to infection.
