Q300 Burnt tip exhaust cleaning

Hey Guys,

I have the invidia Q 300 burnt tip exhaust. I was wondering what would be the best product to keep it clean or condition correctly. My friend has the Q300 but without burnt tip. He just polishes it. But I dont think I can do that to mine.

PLenty of appreciation guys

Don't use polish, your burnt tip will disappear.

I'd say just use water and wipe it.

Yeah that doesn't work. I've been using rim cleaner and a rag seems to work well and I haven't removed any finish.

You can re add the burnt look with heat. Probably a small propane torch

I have the Invidia N1 and I wasn't aware the burnt tip can fade or go away... I thought this was a physical change in the metal when heat is applied.

I'm kinda worried too I just spray mine with wd40 and wipe it down with that... Helps with rust if any!
