I actually just wiped some on the pipes with my fingers and buffed it off with the wheel.for the buffing wheel step do you put the polish on with a rag then buff it off with the wheel or just use the wheel to buff it on?

+1 op:^^^right on, ive wanted to see polished pipes on your car forever!!
op: subscribing
I just purchased a used Magnaflow system just so I can polish the pipes. I don't even want the mufflers or tips so I'll be selling those right away. :rockon:
Wow! That looks A LOT better! :rockon:I had to try this....
I did this with the exhaust on the car and mostly by hand. Results could be better but I am happy. This is a stock cat back.[/IMG]

Looking Good! It will really shine after you hit it with the cotton buffing wheel.Here is my progress so far. I've worked my way up to 2000 grit on both pipes. Tomorrow I'm going to polish them and hopefully get them on early next week. I spent a couple hours each day for the first 3 days and I wasn't too happy with how they were coming out. Today I hit the bends with the 60 grit flapper wheel and then wetsanded them both all over again. These are not a perfect mirror shine, but it's the best I can do.

Looks like you have been layin some serious pipe on your bed!! :rolling:
Have you hit it with 2500, 3000, 4000 yet? You have come this far, so take it a little further before to polish and the results will be great.
I went ahead and threw some polish on the pipes this morning. I think they will look fine once they're under the car.
