I polish them once in awhile.

Use Flitz polish. The best SS polish you can buy. Available mostly in marine stores. I even use it on the exahust section you can see, takes a lot of that heat discoloration off.

I use P21S Multi Surface Finish Restorer applied with 0000 steel wool.

The P21S polish also does very well on aluminum, as you can see the results on the aluminum tube and the engine mount.

That is one very clean engine compartment, Dock.

I will try that P21S on my GT3. It came to me very clean, however the aluminum parts are showing oxidation and such.

Thanks for the tip guys.

Kevin, Dock............. here is what is on my aluminum parts. Kinda white stuff..... oxidation, I guess.

Will the Flitz or P21S work on that??

Thanks.

On the original Porsche window sticker [which i have for my car], exhaust tips are called exhaust pipes.
Option code X54 - Oval chrome exhaust pipes are the overlapping type as per photo.

Yup Flitz will work on Aluminum also! It works on just about every metal out there. It's not cheap, but after using many metal polishes for both marine and auto this stuff is by far the best I have used! for aluminum they also have in addition to the metal polish a pre clean spray to use on aluminum. The preclean should remove the white oxidation

Congratulation on that great buy !! Double check your pccb brakes, they are not the best if I may say. Take your rotors off and check the head of the bolts holding the rotor to the bell. Some bolt head snap . Around the the bolt head the disc tend to crack as well. Been there with my pccb set up. They did look great even did pass a PPI check with Porsche....You need to get them of the car to inspect them properly. Make sure you have all the vibration dampers in place too. Rear rotors are always ok but it seems the front rotors are pretty weak. I just changed for 997 turbo steel rotors all around , best thing I have ever done ! They bite much better than pccb for fast road use !!!! Great car, enjoy the ride but please just check your brakes.

Great purchase.

Would you figure out of 3,000 posts that Dock used at least 1,500 in search of clarification?
