Anyone got any ideas how to get that shine back in the tip of a muffler, I’m looking back wishing I had swapped the stock one on for the winter so my new one didn’t get rusted up. any ideas? ---

if it’s chrome or shiny, then get a chrome cleaner/polish from Wal-Mart and it will do the job 😃 if it’s like a silver, then get a wheel cleaner/polish ---

A little wheel acid and some windex.Then use some steel wool.Makes the job a lot easier using the chemicals. ---

SRBURG has it nailed. Just get the stove cleaner and some metal scouring pads and rub away. The chemicals and abrasive srcubbers clean things up easy with little effert. ---

Hehe, anytime. I just rub it in a damp cloth, rub off all of the grime, and then rinse with the pressure washer. Like a mirror. 😃 And no scratches left behind. ---
