Cool Makin' the muffler shine...

Is there anything out there that you can buy that cleans a muffler <----the canister and makes it have a shine to it. I have a Apexi N1 catback and my muffler is getting kinda dull lookin' and I wanna keep it clean. Just let me know!!!!

Any metal polish and any type of buffer ball...I recommend Mothers polish and the Mothers Power Ball. Works great, just make sure you clean it up with a nice degreaser beforehand.

Yeah, if you don't remove it then space could be a problem....But they do make a power ball mini now I think...I'm pretty sure I saw one at the store a while back

they make 2 sizes i think in the bufferball...one like a softball size or bigger, and a golfball sized one. and get some Mothers' metal polish as they say. i use it always and 3 years later my muffler looks brand new. i do use the mga-n-aluminum polish. but i couldnt get any SS polish. none at the store i went to. but they work great either way i think.
