Cleaning the exhaust pipe
07/15/10 at 15:40:34

Sorry if this has been covered, I did a search, and could not find anything.
I took my textile jacket off and laid it across the back of the seat, and the sleeve melted a bit on the muffler. I scraped most of it off while it was hot, and after it cooled, I used Goof Off. That got even more off. Now I had a dull coating on the muffler. I buy Easy Off oven cleaner, and spray that on the cold muffler. Even more comes off. Then I take a Mr. Clean Magic sponge and start rubbing away at what was left. Looked ok, but still had a very thin coating in spots of what looks like soap scum. I should have left well enough alone. I took the bike for a ride, thinking I'd heat it up, and use the Easy Off again. BAD MOVE. It left tiny spray spots all over the freak'in place, and to top it off, I went to take it off with a microfiber towel, and now the towel melted to it. ARRG!
Does anyone suggest anything? Bleh. Undecided

Kidding... Do that again up the point of melting something else on there... I've used 0000# steel wool, but others will say don't... I don't listen to others....

Anyway, a cold muffler and more Easy Off took EVERYTHING off this time, including the white spots and haze. Thanks for quick response!
