Post How to remove black stuff from around exhaust tips?

The area around my tips are starting to look pretty bad. The bumper had black stuff all over it. What can I use to remove this stuff?

Thumbs up

The tips are stainless, an s.o.s. pad works wonders!

On the bumper try some rubbing compound or a clay bar.

I usually use a wet rag to clean the tips themselves. I have the stock black tips.

Just use a metal polish. Never dull works Very well also.

Sorry guys I meant the stuff that's on the bumper. I keep the tips pretty clean but the black stuff around the exit of the tips is black. Thanks for the help guys.
