    How to Remove Rust on Exhaust Tips?

    Anyone get any good advice?

    It's the only thing I've failed at on this car.

    I've heard Steel Wool might help, and someone mentioned Bartender's Friend? Any other good methods?

    Thanks in advance AG!

    Get yourself some 000 steel wool and put some chrome cleaner on it and go to town. Buff with a mf. Re-apply with just mf and chrome cleaner..should be as good as possible.

    I would hit that with 0000 to make sure you don't scratch the tips.I've used 105 to clean exhaust tips also.

    I just went over the whole exhaust on my 2002 Viper using #0000 steel wool with P21s Polishing Soap. It did a great job removing all the rust. Afterwards I put some Collinite 850 Metal Wax on the exhaust tips. The whole exhaust looks like new.
