Removing oxidation from 07 type S exhaust tips
I just picked up an Acura Certified 07 TL type S yesterday, Black on Black. I told the dealer I wanted him to swap the exhaust tip out for a nice shiny set on another Type S at the lot. Long story short , the dealer told me they are welded onto the exhaust system. So now I need some advise on polishing them or what is involved in replacing them, as well as the cost.
Any tips will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I'm new to the forum, just bought an '07 TLS -- 32K, Certified -- 24,500. Looking forward to making new friends here. I just sold my 04 330 CIC, and before that '03 350 Z. Lots of nice people on those forums too!

0000 steel wool, a stainless steel brush, Bar Keeper's Friend, water, Never Dull, and some serious elbow grease worked for me. Still have a tiny bit more work to do to make them perfect, but it's a night and day difference. Unfortunately, the etching won't ever come out...I don't think the previous owner ever cleaned the tips.
