Cleaning those pipes!

I'm slowly getting sucked into this whole car detailing thing. Has anyone got any tips on products and techniques for getting the shine back on the noble exhaust ends (stock) ?

You can buy exhaust pipe polish at Halfords etc. If its too pitted you won't be able to fully make it as new, but it does work suprisingly well.

I find car detailing on a fibreglass car is a bit depressing as the paint tends to get fairly mullered in places. Then again I find car detailing fairly depressing anyway. Spend half a day on it and do one trackday and its back to square one!

Yeah, I used to spend ages cleaning and cleaning then realised it was a bit of an endless chore. As long as the car looks reasonably clean(ish) then I'm happy.

Easy to get sucked into . Used to like it sparkling at all times.

If you ever get a chance look at Tonyvan's car...it's mint!

Thinking about it, I use Mer on them when they get a bit scruffy - they don't sparkle like crystal particularly but they are noticeably cleaner and look at least like they're reasonably new.

Autosolv works a treat.
