Cleaning exhaust pipes?

I installed a Flowmaster American Thunder cat-back last summer (the one with the polished/chrome stlye outlets). Over the winter they have accumulated some black specks (tar I presume) and I haven't been able to get them off. Any suggestions without hurting the finish? Thanks

Matt

Well,, if you're talking about on the outside,,, just use laquer thinner. Chrome or polished stainless will not be phased by it. if it leaves residue,, used some windex to clean up streaks
