Default Autosol magic on exhaust with pics ;-)

Tried a couple of methods to clean the exhaust yesterday but failed. After having a read on here last night I went to halfords after work and bought some autosol. Well I'll let the pics speak for themselves.

Before


After





Going to polish it again in a few days can't beat a shinny exhaust lol. Autosol well recommended excellent product

Cheers
Martin

Looks spot-on - I used scotch-brite and some meguiars metal polish on my TSL one, easily removed years of carbon and grime

I rate autosol, use it quite alot, always enjoy the results. I am always tempted to do the inside too which is a bit geeky!

Mate they are some sparkling exhausts lol. Excellent work there.
Does anyone clean the centre pipe aswell or is it usually back box only?

Cheers
