    Millteks with Rusty Tailpipe Interiors

    Just bought a second-hand Milltek for my V8 S4 (B6) and the insides of the tailpipes are a little corroded.

    I know some exhausts will have a coating inside and I didn't want to risk scrubbing it off.

    Can anyone recommend the best course of action?

    Here's the nearside pipe (the offside is just the same):

    a bit of autosol and some 00 grade wirewool will clean that up nicley, millteks dont have any special coating inside, usally just shiney stainless steel ( for a few hours after cleaning) then its black!! lol

    00 grade wire wool leaves scratches in stainless.

    It can be hard to find, but it's worth getting 0000 grade. We use Alutech Metal polish; that'd sort those pipes out nicely: Raceglaze Alutech Metal Polish | Raceglaze Car Care & Detailing Products

    Just a little addition and I know it doesn't help your problem but stainless doesn't corrode. So either it's not a stainless exhaust or it's some sort of deposit that can be removed with autosol.
