The first time you use it may take a little patience, depending on how long the carbon has been baking on, but it will come off.
Once you get the baked on layers off, just a quick touch up with the wadding after washing the car will have them looking better than new forever.
I've been using it for 2 years and it's terrific.
It also works well on the aluminum trim to clean up the clouding and water spots that develop.

I think my carbon build-up may be a little more excesive...
then the pictures that people have been posting. In addition, my father in law has a PT-Cruiser that has a turbo, and he doesn't have ANY carbon build-up. With mine, you can wipe your finger on the exhaust tip and it will rub off.
It sounds like, in general, a lot of people are having thing. Like I said, I'm going to clean it off and then check it out after a bit. I'm wondering how much of this is the break-in process, and how much is the break-in of the new chip as well?
Regardless, thanks to all who posted, at least it makes me feel like it is a little more usual.
