Articulate, foam, bucket and schampoo, gleam, job done. All spray on (except bucket, obviously), and hose off.
The tyre dressing is handy too, works a treat on exterior rubber and plastics as well.
Anything more elaborate and she goes to @big_pete
Cheers buddy

Got my stuff yesterday too.
Tried the UltraBrite on 10+ years of carbon buildup on the exhaust.
A lot of effort required to get it to this stage. Think this is a good as I'm going to get it, can't seem to shift any more. Tried a toothbrush, wire wool and wire brush. The metal is probably pitted beyond repair.

I think as @weeloaney says, you're probably at the limit of what is going to be removed. I've had another user contact me last week to let me know he's come across a monster of a job, and where UltraBrite has always worked previously, this time it was having little to no effect.
the pitting is a real pain in the ass

Tried out anti-moss at the weekend over my asphalt drive and granite steps to get rid of moss and green patches, well pleased Everything is gone and the drive looks so much better now.
Looking forward to using the other products I got Ross.

Have you tried a Dremmel or something similar with the wire wheel then the polishing wheel attachment? I did this on my Clio182 exhaust and it done the job rather nicely. Was only a few years crud on it however.

Ross, anything to remove oil stains from a tarmac drive?
I don't want to suggest anything to the guy in case it melted the tar!
