Exhaust tips
billy2shots:
Pot of a metal polish Megs/autoglym your local Halfords will do for less than £10. Or if your loaded then you can get something more specialist.
I use Megs NXT, apply it then leave for a few minutes then buff off. My pipes were in pi55 poor condition. After a couple of times they are starting to look a little better.

As everyone else has been saying.
Metal polish (Autoglym, Autosol etc) Wire wool and elbow grease.
Once done buff of with a microfibre cloth and your tips will be nice and shiny :happy2:
Or save yourself the hard work and go to Jay. If i didn't live 350 miles away i'd be taking my car to him :happy2:

What they said....I followed Mandy's advice and got some degreaser (and some marrigolds), rinsed and repeated a few times. Then with some very fine wire wool just gently rubbed more degreaser in.....then used some very fine wet and dry to clean off the tips (rolled steel) and finished off with some autoglym metal polish.
Spent less than a tenner all in all and worked really well. Now just clean up every week as part of my "routine"
Wife still takes the pith everytime I get the marrigolds out though!

Marigolds are a must, especially if your nails are french manicured. :happy2:
