Cleaning C32 Exhaust Pipes
I have tried several cleaners but I am not getting the carbon build up off my exhaust Tips...
Can I use a Brillo or SOS Pad? Is their a specific cleaner that really works for this?
I am tried Simple Green and Degreaser without much luck.

whoa, dont do that!!!! go get Mothers Metal Polish, its one of the best out there. You might want to go buy a clay bar first and clay the exhaust tips. I am sure that will get rid of the carbon deposits. THEN use the metal polish for some serious shine!

After a very fun night in my c32 I pulled it in the garage and put the MB car cover on it and the cover melted to the tops of the tips and none of these methods have worked. I looked into having the tips replaced but they are welded on to the muffler. What should I do?

If you have a portable steamer that may work for removal of the melted cover I'd avoid anything as hot as a torch.

I used the finest steal wool and the Maquires Mag Polish. It came out INCRREDIBLE!
At the same time, I had to polish my wheel lips again. It didn't realize that I had the car hand washed, but they used some type of acid on my wheels that destroyed my polished lips. After about two hours, all was good as new!
I will post pics in a few days.
Thanks
