Exhaust Tip

Hi,
I have got Autosol, and I’ve been told this should be applied with wire wool? What type should I order?
Regards,
Abs

Basically the finest you can get. It can also work with a rag (Microfibre cloth) if you're patient, though wire wool makes it easier. Anything coarser may leave scratch marks.

The finest and softest you can find Abs.

If this is the clean a chrome/stainless steel exhaust end, i would just use a cloth, tee cut or autosol.
Unless, its rusty, then its not stainless steel, and if the chrome has pitted/rusted, no amount of elbow grease will get it back.
Even wire wool could slightly mark the finish.

Thanks chaps excellent advice as always

Did a basic wash today using the pressure washer down at Tesco Just sprayed it clean nicely using the shampoo function and then rinsed (non-contact)

Got home and dried off and quick spray application of SONAX quick detailer and glasses cleaned with glass cleaner

Looking good

Tomorrow interior vacuum/clean, and perhaps even do the outside again with the mitt and Megs Gold in preparation for the new wheel on Saturday hehe

Will try cleaning up the exhaust with a microfibre.... if it doesn’t clean up... time for a new one

Another question

Can you polish glass? There’s a lot of small scratches on my windscreen. Could these be polished out?

 

[Joderest]

Its possible, but i would have someone like autoglass do it, as if you go too hard, the heat can melt the plastic between the glass, causing a new screen required.
There are kits, but i would really leave it to someone who knows what they are doing
