Polish Stainless Steel Exhaust
Anybody have any experience with polishing up a stainless steel exhaust. Mainly the pipes and the tips. Tips have swirls in them. What method works best?

How do you polish black off the welds on the gmmg tips? I haven't had any luck by hand with wenol or heavy metal polish. Black keeps coming off on the wrag but I never get it all off where it will shine. I thought these were stainless steel polished and they could be polished up. I also have some scratches I thought I could polish out. How do you do this on the stainless steel? I have only worked with aluminum. Thanks for any help.
