What do people use to polish an exhaust? (whole system)

Is there a kit that I can buy that uses a drill and a kind of compound?

 

Im sure its just metal cleaner

 

Pay somebody to do it

 

Metal cleaner?!


I use autosol or silvo on the backbox and tail pipe but want to buzz the whole system to bring it back to new looking.

Doesn't have to be perfect, I'm not ocd or a bufty but do want to keep on top of the underside

 

Bit of cillit bang so im told

 

Not a bad shout actually

 

What finish you after?

 

Nice and shiney

 

I got a polishing wheel set from machine mart, fits onto a bench grinder...

 

That Barry Scott doesnt fuck about

 

I used a bit of 1200 paper then autosol.

 

I was going to polish mine but I can't be arsed so I'm just going to wrap it instead!

 

If it is really stained use brillo pads with warm water first ,they will get all the main crap off and will not scratch it providing you use fresh ones once the soapy part has gone. Dry it and then Solvol Autosol and it will come up nice and shiny.

 

That's just plain laziness!

 

It will take just as much time and cost you more.It aint that hard to clean it.

 

Use sone different grades wire wool with some autosol then buff up it will come up a treat that's how I did mine

 

That's what I did, ha ha

 

Me lazy?! Never!!!

It might cost a little bit more but it won't take me half the time!

Great minds think alike!

 

Get someone to do it for you
I got my manky mongoose exhaust for my s1 done, it was really bad,£70 quid later I picked it up and had to call the guy back as I thought he had given me a new one back
It was that good !

 

I use wire wool and autosol works spot on when I clean mine I reach as far as I can and it brings it up great

 

At the end of the day some people love cleaning and some people hate it. Cleaning my car to me is not a chore, I enjoy it but if you hate it fair enough.
