    Steel wool 000 or 0000. All day long. Should pull most stuff off.

    I like the results I get with Flitz Metal Polish & Restorer in the tube. Can't say I have tried anything else besides soap and elbow grease, though.

    I spray wheel cleaner in them and use a Daytona Speedbrush (style, a cheap lookalike) to clean them on the inside. P21S on the outside.

    0000 Steel wool works but be careful it can mark up some tips. I prefer this Lake Country Exhaust Polishing Sponge and some metal cleaner/polish.
