Blue Magic Polish. I haven't used it on my S4 tips yet, but it does wonders on my B5 A4 APR exhaust. Turns my oxidized gold colored exhaust into a silvery, shiny, polished, lustrous, stainless steel thing of beauty!

After posting my initial query on AudiWorld, I decided to bring my Weiman Stainless Steel Wipes - that I clean my stainless steel appliances with - to my auto dealer and have him detail my car again.
He liked the wipes so much he asked *me* where I got them (local grocery store, of course)! The wipes did an OK job on the tail pipes, which are frankly going to need more work (maybe with a wheel brush & Optimum No Rinse). But, they did a *great* job on the mirrors, wheels, and other silver bits! Success!!!

Weekly almost if you want them looking good, they soot pretty easily, not to mention collect road scum from being at the rear with the air currents as you drive. The longer stuff stays caked on them the harder to clean.

Yes, definitely my problem now! I get my car cleaned, waxed, and detailed once a month, but they couldn't keep my S4's pipes clean. So I'm going to be definitely hitting the exhaust pipes myself on the weekend when I have time.
What do you think I should use for the caked on stuff? Blue Magic Polish? Optimum No Rinse? Something else?
