This stuff works well on wheels and exhaust tips also (apply then wipe off):

Wanted to thank the OP for posting this; although I consistently polish the outside of my tips, it's been a (long) while since I've cleaned up the inside and something I've been meaning to do for a while ... this post motivated me to get out and do it lol. Although they didn't turn out as well as the OP's, I did mine all by hand and they look a heck of a lot better then they did. Next time a make a trip to Vegas, I'll be stopping by Harbor Freight ...

Wanted something easier for pipes a few years back, a member recommended a can of Easy-Off.
Got back from a cruise & planned a wash, so pipes were hot.
Tried it.
Sprayed stuff inside and outside pipes, let sit a few minutes.
Outside's the biggest PITA, much harder to reach than anything else so really wanted to see what it'd do.
Hosed 'em off while wiping w/ a cloth.
They sparkled.
Even carbon spotting I dread most about this job, was dissolved away.
Truly amazing. Stupid easy. Pipes look great as-is, w/o polish.
Use EZO first to remove all carbon & grime, then a polishing compound if desired. You'll need 2 pair of sunglasses & no sore muscles.

Yup, supposedly an old timer's trick.
Sorry not a pic guy, have to take my word for it.
I keep M2W open all the time, middle pair seem to carbon-up the worst much faster than outside pair.
Even tho' pipes are wiped out after every outing, they still get carbon-up over time & all 4 top barrels awful w/ dirt/road grime ordinary washing simply does not remove.
I for one really hate sitting on my **** in front of 4 tips w/ a drill mounted buffer. Hate it. After using this stuff & seeing w/ my own 2 eyes how well it works I wanted to bawl. That's happy.
Just try it.
Nothing else comes close re time & $ vs. results for quickly cleaning tips, no matter how dirty. I'm now a believer.
Got any pics?
