I'm not Gary, but I find clay bar works well.[8D]

Don't have a problem with the black on the outside but what about the inside. I have 3" openings and they could use a little cleaning. Its a little rough in there.

"Cleaning the inside of the exhaust tips" Man, you guys are perfectionists. The outside chrome is easy. Just take some cleaner wax, or chrome cleaner to it, should come right off. That's carbon build up you see. YOu will never get the inside clean for any length of time. Its ok, no points deducted for dirty interior exhaust tips. If you bothers you that much, take a detail brush with some all purpose cleaner, but in a few days it will be the same as it was. Gary
