I forgot to specify it's not the inside of the pipes, its the inside of the end of the tips

Try Eagle One wadding too. It works pretty well on exhaust tips.

You could remove the tips to clean. It's just one 10mm bolt at the bottom.
note: do not try to remove it when exhaust is hot. Spray some WD40/PB Blaster on the bolt prior to removing. The bolt snaps easy due to daily hot/cold cycles
