Default detailing tip for exhaust tip

tonight i was able to clean the inside of my exhaust tips (71) using eagle one wheel cleaner. This worked very well and removed all the mess. Obviously i protected the paint by laying a piece of cardboard over the tip while I sprayed the wheel cleaner on. Only took 15 mins for both tips while I watched the ball game. Good luck.

Interesting - I like the insides of mine to be black. I think it makes a good sharp contrast to the chrome tip outer surface, bumpers, trim, etc...
