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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
