WD40 takes tar off and then some good Meguiars chrome polish with elbow grease

your exhaust tips are polished stainless steel, mothers or any kind of metal polish will work just fine,

there is way better stuff than mothers, the best store stuff i have ever used is white diamond, but adams has the best stuff out right now, but for exhaust tips mothers,bluemagic or anyone of those should do you just fine, i like mothers , its not bad and does a good job, but imo just cant hang when compared to other products out right now.it really depends on the job, if your gonna repolish some beat up polished aluminum rims that need alot of work i would say get something good, to clean 2 dirty exhaust tips any of those listed will be fine

If they are chrome you don't really need to polish them, just clean them.

If they are stainless most metal polishes will work, just takes time and effort.

i bought 2 bumpers for my 67 mustang. i had to clean them to get minor rust off, if i leave them anywhere with moisture like if i put them in my garage (has no insulation), it makes the rust come back. will a regular car wax keep it from rusting?
