Default Exhaust refinish
Is there anyway to restore the shine of a stainless steel exhaust?. If so how do you go about doing so.

maybe take it off and hit it up with a buffing wheel.

You need to sand it down, and then buff it using a buffing compound, and that will bring it back looking some what new again.

Not unless you get high temp clear coat, and i don't think they make any of that. it would just burn off after.
