Kate, show us your pipe please.
 

I have been searching the forum for advice on keeping my front pipe clean, and i noticed that Kate says she uses an alloy cleaner and gets a result as good as the rest us us only get after polishing with autosol.

So, Kate, may i see your down pipe please? They say seeing is believing. Oh - and what is the name of the stuff u use and where do i get it?

LOL, its a bit difficult as the SV was towed away last year. Thor also uses the stuff and I think I remember some pics a while ago which you could look up.

The stuff is Comma Alloy Wheel Cleaner

Spray it on the downpipe, wait and then wipe off :) Its powerful stuff so keep it away from your paintwork.

cool - thank Kate.

I'll get some next time I'm passing a halfords. In the mean time i might see if the autoglym wheel cleaner that i use on my car has the same results. I'll let everyone know if it works.

HTH :lol:

To be fair, we both have(had) aluminium full systems.

Stu you should be ashamed of yourself - that pipe is worse than e.d.'s

Hmm if Thor and Kate both had aluminum pipes I'm beginning to think i won't get the same result with this alloy cleaner. still I'll give it a try - its only 8 squids.

Aluminium headers? Never heard of that before...

My downpipe is going that funny shade of alloy colour...

And my end can looks like its a bit tainted too...

Hindle ones - well I think it's alu...

Looks like it's SS, with a Aluminium end can, (Here) so the cleaning stuff should work a treat then.
