Bit of WD40 and some elbow power is all you need on the pipes :)

Never dull works amazing, I used for the first time yesterday and I'm sold. I've experience with a lot of different types of metal polishers and this is really good.

First used Solvol Autosol in the 60’s to polish the alloy engine casings and mega exhausts on Lambretta’s. The tube and branding hasn’t changed, it’s been around for nearly a century and is an excellent product. As already stated, if its a plated component, it is a fine abrasive, so once you’ve cleaned the old crap off switch to something gentler for regular maintenance.

forget the elbow grease, put a cloth on the end of your battery drill, works a treat

Spirit-level bubbles are in short supply around here. Let me know if you spot any of those!
Sold out around here too! Plenty of glass hammers and long weights though! 😉😊

Autosol for me - pipes on my previous Boxster sooted up after every drive and needed constant attention. Hoping the F Type is a bit less sooty…
