Default Intake Charge Pipe

I was wondering if any of you know how to get rid of the greenish-yellow tint that develops on the OEM intake charge pipes on our cars? No matter what I try, I can't seem to get rid of it. The intake charge pipe always looks like it's covered in a layer of pollen-dust. Thanks in advance.

I think it is just normal oxidation, use an oily product on it to see if it stays shiny for a longer period of time, or maybe 303 Aerospace and just leave it to drip dry without wiping. The real answer is to replace it if it is that ugly. I replaced mine as it got brittle and developed a tear in it by the vent pipe.

303 is more of a protectant. Use a restorer instead. I prefer this one: Solution Finish Black Trim Restorer - Kit | Free Shipping Available - Detailed Image

Take the part out and clean it thoroughly first.
