Yup have used it on mine, and works good, try not to leave it too long between cleaning, otherwise you'd need to get a rotary machine/pads etc, as soot deposits can be hard grained with the heat cycles.

Nice—I've also heard of good results with Nevr-dull and Autosol.

I've used Autosol too, but not on titanium, it will leave very fine scratches due to the small grit particles.. its very good on stainless steel exhausts though. Not heard/used Nevr-dull though.

I use Pinnacle Exhaust Cleaner & Brightener since it won't affect the finish.
