So my new exhaust is on the way. I like everything about it but the ss tip has the burnt ti-look to it. What is the best way to get rid of the the torched look, but not mar the exhaust tip?

Product to apply?
scotch brite pads?
Thanks

 

very interestnig question...
we have had the question- "how do i clean my ti tips so that i dont remove the blue" but never had the question "how do i remove the blue"!!

autosol metal polish is one choice that should do the job.

i will see if i can find more info on this and post back for you-

 

more info... interesting that they used a brake cleaner after the autosol.

you could prob use other metal polishes, or maybe even a chrome polish if you have one. always test the underside first

 

try this metal polish

and use this to try and remove the "burnt" look (with the metal polish)

Haha but ricers love that look .
I agree with you dude, I only like the look on certain colors, like blue lol. The only thing I would be concerned about is you are likely lowering the value of your exhaust because people expect to get the ti blue tips.

 

Thanks wanabe, great find. I just ordered the Autosol metal polish. I'll post a review after my experience.

As for resale value, I could care less.

 

and you can reblue it if you want to...

 

Spent almost an hour on it tonight and I was able to get the blue coloring off. The only problem now is it left a gold coloring. I'll try using my orbital over the weekend and post my results.

 

This might work:
