    Re: Cleaning and Polishing Camry exhaust tips?

    Are they chrome? I’ve seen Camry’s with a white dual exhaust. And hoping it wasn’t some dude gluing PVC to the rear panel for a ricer look. (I live in SoCal. We see this stuff here).
    Presuming they are chrome, one more vote here for P21 polishing soap. Coating them with a rim/metal/wheel coating helps too.

    Maybe they are stainless, I know they are not chrome. I just have some of that brown stain at the bottom of them I want to get rid of.

    Re: Cleaning and Polishing Camry exhaust tips?

    So my P21S showed up today and at first I was confused. It is like a solid puck of cleaner, not a paste like a wax, then I watched a video on it where you soak the foam applicator full of water and then squeeze most of it out and then tap it in the tub of P21S. LOL.

    Ok, Well, anyway it was easy, fast and got great results. I am a believer now.

    Re: Cleaning and Polishing Camry exhaust tips?

    So, this brings up another question, can I use P21S to clean the inside barrel of a wheel. I am talking about the factory rims that came with the camry, Not the face of the rim , just the inside barrel? I have already degreased, scrubbed and got all the loose brake dust and crap off of the barrels.

    I am talking about the etched in black spots that standard brushing and cleaning won't get. I have been told to use an acid cleaner and then a second product to neutralize the acid and that will do it. But will the P21S do the same thing or will it scratch up the barrels?

    •I’m glad the P21S product
    performed as promised.


    •Allow me to suggest that you now
    apply some Simichrome to the tips.
    -I like how it always added that
    little extra Uummph to mine:

    I will check out SimiChrome a little later, but I do want to ask you about something in the photo and I noticed the same thing when used P21S.

    If any of it drops on the concrete while using it on the tip it actually stains the driveway like white chaulk. I see the white spots on your drive way also. What exactly is in P21S?

    That’s not any type of white spots
    on the driveway. What you are
    actually looking at is the “finish”
    that’s on the garage floor.

    Getting the SDS data sheets for

    Can I use P21s and 0000 Steel wool the mufflers also? The rear bumper on the camry does not come all the way down. I can part of the mufflers standing behind them.
