I never heard of that one before. I guess I have to start running 110 or higher leaded octane so it turns the exhaust tips white!!!

I use simple green. then if I'm up for it I polish it up with metal polish. But I have stock exhaust and when it gets changed it's probably gonna be a borla hush so the police can suck on it.

I just use car wash detergent and some warm water. Besides, Titanium doesn't need to be polished, it's bling enough as it is.

Carb cleaner. Works wonders. Spray the hell out of it then just wipe it off.

I use just the WD-40. I wiped it down yesterday with just a rag and WD and it was blingin' in seconds. I put it up on the lift, wiped down the piping, resonator and all. Th WD removes all the road grime and shines it up nice.

that's cute, razorlab, but as i'm sure you already know, that if you track your ****e, race gas and the constant heat will give you the rainbow effect anyways. Plus, haven't you ever seen an original gt-40 snake pit header with full rainbow in person? obviously not.

OMG!!! You guys waist alot of materials just to clean the exhaust tip.

USE FINE GRADE STEEL WOOL!!!!!!!

It will be clean, fee of rust, dirt, bugs...or whatever is on it. I will give you some steel wool if you want. Hell, I'll even show you how to do it.
