Fezza_luke1.6 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Any thought on a performance exhaust system for my 1.6 tdci zetec s? New to this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laumk7 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I think unless the soot is caked on you'll be alright with a soft cloth and metal polish, rather than a wire wool pad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laumk7 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Don't forget to get some high temperature wax on it when you've finished Tarting it up, wheel wax should do as that has to cope with high temperatures I use swissvax but at 40 odd quid for 50ml, this stuff is more reasonable. https://www.shopnshine.co.uk/finish-kare-hi-temp-paste-wax-1000p?___SID=U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpannerTheCat Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Another thumbs up from me for Autosol,used it for ages but go gently with it after you've washed the light staining off then buff it up for best results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try Meguiers NXT metal polysh (correct spelling), I had a mate who always used Autosol, then he tried some of my Meguiers and switched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 White diamond metal polish and sealant, also very good for polishing up hazy headlamps on older cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeZS19 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Ive used autosol on my exhaust and it came up well. It wasn't majorly black but had discoloured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 It's Autosol you're meant to use? Hmm, thought the Anusol wasn't having the desired effect... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
