Assessing exhaust finish options


I sandpapered the stainless pipe with No.600 sandpaper to see the effect of a brush chrome exhaust pipe. For one, it's slippery smooth to touch and there won't be any fingerprints to see. There is less maintenance with this option. However, I am monitoring to see how long the pipe can maintain its brush chrome brilliance without polish. I need to get an second opinion later from the exhaust fabricator whether the quality of the stainless steel pipe used makes a difference, failing which, I may opt for a black mandrel pipe or fully stainless steel; a tussle between cost and least maintenance.
