Clean exhaust

The exhaust tips on the C7 are Stainless Steel? Trying to figure out how to keep them clean and wanted to make sure I use the right cleaner....

Also, how do I delete a bunch of the adds that constantly roll on here ?

I wipe my tail pipes with a microfiber cloth with a squirt of window cleaner on it. it keeps them sparkling clean. I do it every few days.

Carlisle 4000805 brush, 5" diameter on Amazon.

Works well for me.

I painted mine black, like the rest of the car, and drive on.

I use wheel cleaner on the exhaust tips and a wheel brush. I just clean them when I clean the wheels. This keeps them nice and shiny every wash. Then every 2-3 months I polish them up with some Blue Magic Wheel polish that is made for stainless steel/polished aluminum. Regular wheel mag polish didn't seem to clean them up very well so after trying a few brands I landed on Blue Magic and it works nicely.

I cleaned mine with some Ceramic stove top cleaner. Bottle says good for all metals as well as the stove top. I then coated the exhaust tips & perforated areas further inside the tip with a Ceramic Rim Coat I had left over for my wheels & calipers. I wipe the pipes after every daily drive, takes very little time to do and keeps the carbon from building up to the point that it is a bear to clean..
