Time to remove my FOR SALE and ALMOST NEW GHL's and clean them up for the lucky one who buys them. They're pretty clean already, but I want to shine them up. What do I use and what should I never let near the mufflers? Thanks.

Very fine steel wool and then some polish should work fine.

I use a Meguiar's product called "All Metal Polish" on my stainless tips and it keeps them looking just like shiney chrome. It leaves no scratches and really works

I use a product that requires no rubbing/polishing. Wipe on wait 5 min. Wipe off
comes in 2 streingths, one in a blue tube and one a red tube. Bought it at a german car event awhile back. I use it on my MS tips to take off any stains. Works great. I'll get you the name (starts with a W) when I get home.

Forgot about a favorite of the trucker set. Go to a truck stop and look for the polish with the bunnys on them. There is a cleaner and a sealer, you need both. They worked wonders on my alloy race wheels. Owner of a wheel manufacture told me about this stuff.

Autosol works very well

I assume you mean Wenol Metal Polish which comes in a red tube for heavily oxidized surfaces or blue tube to polish to a high luster. Either may be purchased from the Autopia.com site or your local Williams-Sonoma store should have the red tube.

I've had good success w/Blue Magic Metal Polish - inexpensive & available at most auto parts stores, Walmart, etc.

Dan, that's the name. Great stuff IMHO.
Thanks, now I don't have to wonder all day.

I third the Wenol red or blue polish. Fikse recommends the red to shiny up their raw aluminum rims. I've found they also work great as a final treatment on the stainless steel of my Supercups.

Autosol works great....used it on my m/bikes in the uk, even works on chrome without damaging the surface but have not seen it for sale here in the US

If you can't find a place to order Autosol from, feel free to PM me and I can help.

Thanks Graham.....I will let you know if nobody can tell me where I can source in the US

Just had a discussion on this subject with one of my friends at work who owns a boat and uses "Flitz" on all his stainless....works wonders, can be had from any marine supplier for about $10.

David, if you go w/the Flitz let us know how it works. I've heard of it too.

Will do, I pass a marine store on the way home, so once they have cooled down I will do the exhaust tips tonite and report 2morrow. I will even take photos if somebody can tell me how to attach them on this site.
