Any good exhaust polish???

Anyone know what I could use to shine up my HKS I just installed on my sedan yesterday? it's used but in great shape. Just want to clean it up and want to make sure I don't use anything that is harsh on it. Thanks

I use this for my chrome trim and on the HKS exhaust tips - works brilliantly:

I use Eagle 1 Never Dull Wadding Polish... it comes in a can (wad material)... it's very convenient and easy to use... works good.

Previous cars I've used Brasso (sp?) it's shines real nice.

i just used some wheel cleaner on the exhaust on my crx, and it worked really nice. rubbed it on, wiped it off, then buffed it, shines like new. so why go out and buy something else, if you can use the products u already have, haha.

Blue magic metal polish, great stuff actually from Target/Autozone. Leaves a coating (probably silicone) that protects the metal as most polished do. Comes in a blue container...go figureDOMO
