what is the exhaust made out of? Is it stainless, carbon fiber... or is it painted?

Or are talking about the header pipe?

if its stainless or titanium, a good chrome polish should remove the spots.

I use an old retired green and yellow common kitchen sponge/scrubber with either goof-off, lighter-fluid or wd-40 to lightly scrub off road grime/gunk on my Arrow exhaust. After that, I wipe clean with a hot damp rag to get rid of the stuff I used to clean it in the first place.
