    New exhaust tips-how to protect them?

    I am swapping out my stock (quiet) exhaust on my corvette
    Here are the tips I'm adding along with Borla mufflers


    Question is how to I protect them to keep them looking new and easy to clean.

    My ideas Rejex or high temp clear coat (engine/caliper etc)

    What are your tips?

    2 things I've found work well. OptiCoat them before you put them on, then use P21S Polishing Soap to maintain the insides. That will keep them new. OC will keep the outside protected & the P21S leaves protection behind for the inside. Use the P21S on a small piece of sponge.

    Flitz metal polish at the first signs of looking dull. Usually can find it at ace hardware.
