Polishing CT exhaust...

I picked up a used CT exhaust the other day, and its kinda dirty...where can I take it to have it professionally cleaned/polished so its really shiny...I tried using Blue Magic, pine sol, bug and tar remover...nothing really helped much..any ideas? Thanks guys

do a search, Smitty took a set and made them look better than new with some polish called "Boms Away" and a dremel, and I think wet sanded?

Eagle One is the best stuff. when I bought my used CT exhausts, I was stuck trying to clean it with everything but that. When I bought the Eagle One, it took no time to clean my CT exhausts. They looked brand spanking new when I finished with them. I didn't even want to mount them. I just wanted to sit and look at because they were blingin so much. Eagle One is the best way to go.

Eagle 1 mag wheel polish on some 0000 steel wool works extremely well for stuff like this. Just finish it off with a soft cloth. They will be shiney.
