Phoenix Detail - Brilliant Black Audi S5 - Paint Correction & CQuartz Finest

What did you use on the exhaust tips? My wife's A5 gets tons of soot on them that I have a very hard time removing.

Beautiful work.
 
I love looking at your work, it is truly amazing!:)

I sprayed them with the 1Z wheel cleaner first, it broke some of it down..then i used Megs Degrease at about 4:1 (pretty strong) to help break down the rest and used my 2" wheel woolies to scrub them.

There was a little that was still left on one side, but a little metal polish on a MF towel took care of it.

For really bad tips i will still do a chemical clean on them first as described above...but if there is still a lot left, i'll take a 3000 grit Megs 3" sanding disc and use it real wet on the tips...then after they are clean i'll use M105 or something like that to polish them back up...if you're really feeling ambitious then go to 205 and then put a metal wax on em :)

Thank you.

The head light i got from Tmart.com led headlamp | Search Results : Tmart.com

I beleive the one i bought was the $44 one, just be sure if you get one, to buy some GOOD (i recommend Energizer) rechargeable batteries and the energizer 15 minute recharger - that way you're light isn't down in between re-charges :)
