Cleaning exhaust tips on R-spec or similar tips

[Jbo]

After reading an exhaustive treatise on this and performing on wife's EOS, I thought " better living through chemistry" and thought how of how I get brake dust off? Meguires of course, so I masked off tip and surround and sprayed McGuires wheel cleaner( this stuff is supposedly approved by wheel mfgrs) on and into tip. Let it set for a minute and then hit with a rubber brush designed for wheels....viola!,,,stains gone...apply wax and wait for next time.

...so I masked off tip and surround and sprayed McGuires wheel cleaner

Assuming that you did so to protect the adjacent paint? Is this Meguiar's recommendation, or rather your own safety precaution? Regardless, I know they make good stuff.

Is this what you used?

Yes, that is the product. My friend at Meguiars did NOT tell me to mask it off, just my own precaution...blue painters tape don't you know. I use mostly al Meguiars products except paste wax..there I use a product called " Fleet Wax"made for Aeronautical industry...available at West Marine $25 a tub....easy on/off hardest finish I've ever seen in 50 years of cars/ boats applications.
