I tired doing a search and it didnt work. I am looking for polish for my exhaust. It is really dirty, almost black. lol. The previous owner didnt take much car of this car. Anyway, what is that name and where can I get this stuff?

Yeah, mother's mag polish is one of the best. Takes a lot of elbow grease to work though. A rotary buffer speeds things up.

Both Mothers and NevR Dull work really well..

I heard use lighter fluid on it to clean it, then a polish to polish it.. Never tried it though.

He thought he was trying to remember a Polish name, ie the name of someone from Poland.
