Default Whats best to use to clean my Borla's
I love my Stingers but they have to be cleaned up a bit. What is best to use on them to get them as sparkling as they were when I first bought them?

the polish kit we offer works great on the Borlas. I use this kit on my Bullets and the results are amazing. Easy to do with a drill

I just saw this thread for the first time and had another forum member recommend Never Dull to me for cleaning my exhaust tips. Great stuff. Worked like a charm. Very impressed!

I use Simple Green to clean them and then use Blue Magic Metal Polish to bring on the shinning luster

Thanks,Matt
