Exhaust Tips

[Black96SVT]

I was wondering if there was any safe thing to use to clean my exhaust tips? They already have rust on them and I havent even had them for a month yet. I dont have the stainless steel, which I am kicking myself right now. I have Flowmaster American Thunder CB :read:

try some simple green and a steel pad

If there chrome a steel wool pad will work perfect.When you buy them it might be a variety pack,so look for the one that is really fine. :coolman:

depending on how dirty they are, you could use either SOS pads (for really dirty) or the Eagle One "cotton" chrome polish.

you're going to spend so much time trying to keep those clean if theyre not stainless steel. You should look around and find the tips you really like in chrome or stainless steel.

I've used several of the wheel cleaner sprays with good results.. I own a self serve car wash and people leave me half full bottles all the time.. I save em for my exhaust tips.

I have stainless steel pipes and if you spray windex on them and let it sit for just a sec, use a towel and it cleans perfect.

"spendin money that I don't have to buy parts that I don't need to impress people that I don't know"

Never Dull!!!!! You can get at Wal-Mart, AutoZone, Advanced Auto.........anywhere. It comes in a stainless steel looking can, and it works better than anything I have ever used. It is a wadding polish, you pull off a piece and apply it, after it hazes you remove it with a clean cloth. It will remove carbon, rust etc. I love the stuff just be sure to wear some nitrile gloves or wash your hands afterwards to avoid drying them out.

haha I appreciate it. Its just one of those things that sounds stupid but is true..its just that addiction we got I guess! :-D If it weren't true though, we wouldn't have this board and there wouldn't really be any such thing as a car 'enthusiast.'

AMEN!!! I've used "Never Dull" for YEARS and think it's GREAT!!!
Works fantastic on any metal surface - stainless, chrome, polished wheels, etc.

Try either or both of those. They should clean it up. Absolutely great. Then get PoorBoy's Wheel Sealant and that should help prevent more rust and wear. Although, I don't know if exhaust system heat will do anything to the Wheel Sealant.

Thanks a lot! I am going to give it a try, even though I would rather have SS tips or just do dumps
