Exhaust Tips and Wheels
I was wonder what are the best tools and soaps to use to clean my exhaust tips and wheels.
I have heavy brake dust on my wheels and it is really starting to tick me the hell off!
Also my exhaust tips have a lot of crap on them as well and are pretty scratched up. I have an IS350 08 so I don't know if my tips come off.

Also is this worth buying for the paint surface? Seems pricey for clay no?

I'm in the process of polishing my entire exhaust right. I'm using Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish and the results are amazing. I highly recommend it!

So just pull the exhaust tips really hard and it should come off? How do I get them back on? I will try the mothers mag and aluminum polish.
Is there anything that can get heavy brake dust off my damn wheels? Any tool that might help?

P21S Polishing is your best friend for safely polishing metal surfaces. To bring back the brilliance in the metal, you can follow up with Finish Restorer. Excellent combo that won't break the bank either.

As for the wheels, claying would be the safest option. Just clean the wheels first with a designated wheel cleaner. If your wheels are really bad, then use P21S Gel Wheel Cleaner and allow the product to sit on for about 5-10 minutes. Do you have pictures of your wheels?
