Default Cleaned my Exhaust Tips ....Pics

Thought i'd try to clean my exhaust tips today with the advice from PDad from a previous post. I used a SOS pad and tomorrow i'll try the oven cleaner, if you think i can get them cleaner than this.

Those Ontario winters can be harsh on tailpipes.
Good job cleaning them up.

Clean them more often in the winter and try to wipe them down before putting her to sleep at night.

Wow! Those really cleaned up nice. Good work
This is why I'm hesitant about getting aftermarket tips, I don't want them looking nasty all the time.

Wait a second...aren't those aluminum? If so, you can use that etching mag wheel cleaner from Eagle 1. Believe it or not, it does wonders for unfinished aluminum.
