Default Cleaning muffler

Anybody know any great products that I could buy that would help make my muffler shiney and new again? Its a little bit dirty (not rusted) and could definitely use some shine again. This is considering stores in Canada since i'm in Calgary. Thanks.

Take it off and hit it with some metal polish and a buffer. I have this stuff called Wenol, don't know where you can get it. Just try an auto parts store.

Is the metal polishing stuff really easy that I would just have to use a cloth to clean it or is there another method?

Clean it with water and degreaser first, then get some of that Mag and aluminum polish and comes in a little tub.. sure the muffler is SS but it still works!

yeah the BRASSO is kinbda like wax but more towards polish. you will rub the BRASSO on your exhaust until a black residue appears on your cloth. that shows that the dirt and nonvisable rust is comming out. Its also great from prventing rust. good for old wheels too!!!!!
