How to clean exhaust tips?

[HugoFastmann]

Hey all, my exhaust tips look horrendous (black as the paintwork nearly!) and need a clean up. Can anyone recommend an effective process/products to get them back to shiny factory polish again?

Can is an E46 BMW, if that makes any difference.

The Britemax twins - easy cut then final shine. If they don't do the job, try a metal polishing mop on a drill

Just a good cut and polish then? Any specific pads or wire brushes or anything of that sort??

Thanks guys, a few good options to try there. I'll get take some photos when I get round to doing it (hopefully this weekend).

Believe it or not after a good scrub, leave some toothpaste on overnight.

Really?! Sounds dangerous. Don't want them going white...
