Good way to clean brown spots off pipe

I just tried some Bar Tenders Best Friend this morning to clean up my funtech pipe and it worked awesome with very little elbow grease, looks like new. Just a tip if you didn't know.

Actully I have been looking around to find a good cleaner for just that. I have an OS Powerboost pipe that needs brown stains cleaned off. I got it used so I have no idea what it is, appears to be burn fuel but who knows.

Thanks for the tip!

If it's really bad you can cook it in anti freeze in a crock pot overnight (outside) and it will make it look new ... just don't use the crock pot to cook food in afterwards, lol (common sense prevails)

I use Mothers (the polish, not my mom's crockpot, lol) for the bi-weekly brush up

Dawn Power Dissolver works great (can be found in Walmart). No caustic chemicals, works through the use of enzymes. Spray it and wait 15 minutes and then wipe down. I use it on my gasser mufflers for burned on oil spots.

I've successfully used Dawn Power Dissolver Pot/Pan Cookware Cleaner. It's quick and easy to use.

This hobby is WAY too expensive!!

Harley has a product that works really well too; it's called Road Rub. It comes in a small, screw up can, just like deordorant. It's designed for removing melted boot marks off of chrome pipes, etc. on a motorcycle, but it works very well for this application as well. Cheap too at around $8.

Sand the spots off with 400 and polish with jewelers rouge and a buffing wheel. Looks great.

ALL the magic potion's and lotion's, elixir's and brew's - and still use the crock and glycol - for boiling motor's sterile.

Rubber Gloves are Nice : but a friend with grubby hand's is better


Find it in your better hot rod shop's -better bike race shop's, auto restoration shop's and on the WEB

It's a fine thing the European's provide us with they are very proud of it

Nothing compare's - takes a bit of labor but you cannot compare the result's to any thing else.

antifreeze in a crock pot is the hillbilly way.

wet sand with 1000grit or higher and hand rub with mothers mag polish OR find someone with a vibratory polisher. Not sure if corn cob will take it off, I know porcelain balls is whats used to polish chrome ceramic for headers so that may work.

sand blasting with wallnut shells, or plastic media should work also without peening the finish.

Dawn Power Dissolver did it for me.

^^^^ Yep, what he said.

No boiling in a crockpot, no caustic chemicals. Dawn Power Dissolver is used on burned on pots and pans and works great on mufflers. You just spray it on for 15 minutes and wipe it down. In a worse case scenario you could do two applications.
