Changing Tips

[jmatta]

I've used Blue Magic Metal Polish on mine for years...they look as new and have no scratches. Any type of fine steel wool (0000) with give them a satin finish, if that's what you're after.

Almost any kind of metal polish will work. I use Mother's aluminum polish. It's the fine abrasives that do the job. No oxidation with stainless steel.

I'll try one of these metal polishes and see how it works. Thanks all.

I would avoid using steel wool, as recomended by some experts. I tried very softly on a small section and did some damage... Mothers polish worked OK but did not get rid of all of the old heat stains. I have asked people and it seems I'm the only one that can actually tell any difference or can notice the stains. So, chances are no one will really notice if yours looks satin or shiny chrome. They'll just tell you they look great with a funny smile.

Google : Blue Away Polish. We have used this on motorcycle exhaust for years.

I'd love to replace the stock tip on my base 987, but not for the $300-$500 I see them going for! I saw a set for ~$50, but I suspect they are worth less than that.
