Hi,

This is the first time I have owned a car where I care about getting the exhausts looking clean Smile. They do get quite sooty. Can anybody recommend what i should use to clean them?

Thanks.

I've used Autoglym Metal polish on all of my exhausts and it works a treat. You can probably even use the Engine Cleaner as well, though I've not tried.

Try Autosol. Been using it for years with no problems. Around a fiver per tube but lasts for ages.

Just given mine it's first clean and the only thing I had to hand for the exhaust was Duraglit silver polish, worked a treat!

It's not at all sad if it makes us happy. steveh2016-04-27 12:55:16

They're just jealous because they don't have an F-Type

I don't use any polishes but I always have my exhaust clean, still has that nice shine when I wipe off the black sooty stuff.
The exhaust pipes are just the DBs, can't think of any other sports car with good looking exhaust.
