Now with chrome tip!

Who would have thought that underneath 40 years of road grime, carbon, and miscellaneous goo there would be something beautiful?  The exhaust tip on my 280z looked corroded beyond hope.



Employing sandpaper, a Dremel, a plastic knife, a 3" random orbit polisher, and a product called Quick-Glo, I was able to discover the inner beauty of this item.  I also cleaned the mounting bracket, bolts, and inner surfaces with a flapper sanding wheel on my Dremel, then coated them with exhaust paint to keep them from rusting.



For those that have never used it, Quick-Glo is an awesome product for quickly cleaning and protecting chrome.
