You can also use a bench top buffer with dual wheels and some white rouge and take it even further than you can get done by hand.

looks great 01 Red WS6,i didn't realize that most of you guys take the exhaust off to polish it, i just polished mine on the car while laying on the ground... i probably could've got better results if i took the exhaust off the car like you guys do.

I just purchased the Magnaflow Catback polished SS exhaust so I'll take the pics soon, will try to shine up the muffler even more before I install it.
