[sjw515]

Hey guys so i want to polish my stock exhaust tips (pig snouts) on my 04 GTP. What should i use? Wet sand them? Thanks!

start with 600wet 800 grit wet then 1000 wet then 1500 wet then 2000 wet then polish it by hand or with a buffing pad on a dremel tool. that will give you as mirror finish if you sand them correctly
here is a pic of mine i only went to 800 grit i was looking for the brushed look.

^ thats a lot of sand paper to buy!! If i just want to get one set of the wet sand paper should i use the 600 or 800 grit?

the higher you go the shinier it will be... so i would say do 800 and then follow that up with 1500 or 1200

It will take you forever to sand with 800, and the sandpaper will fill up quickly with exhaust carbon. Look for a multi grit pack if you don't want to buy a few.


I used to just stick a wire brush on the end of my drill and go to town.
