What's the BEST product to use for.....

cleaning my SS Exhaust Tips to get rid of the "orangey" color?
The TIPS are new and only have about 500 miles but I hate this dis-colorization (due to heat, I assume).

I like a product called Metal RX from Obsessive Detail. I used it on my stainless grill this spring and let me tell you this is some good stuff and I use it on the chrome on my truck.






Here is there website. http://www.obsessivedetail.com/about.html

Either way you still have to polish them.

I have always had good luck with Mother's Mag an aluminum polish. It takes the discoloration right out. I use a jeweler's wheel on my cordless.

I like the Megs All Metal Polish and/or the Never Dull. These products have worked well for me.

Lots of good metal polishes out there. My personal favorite - introduced to me by Boss429 many many moons ago - is Heavy Metal Polish green.




A second favorite of mine, and much more readily available, is NXT Metal Polysh.



Snag HMP at Iowa80 and NXT at ADS.
