Re: Want to get your downpipes clean - EASIEST WAY
Well done with the Wonder Wheels. I didn't realise it would work so well.
I wouldn't order some WW for this, but if you have some lying around then it's definitely worth a shot. |

And the cling film over the oil cooler if you spray the whole header in one one!

Re: Want to get your downpipes clean - EASIEST WAY
Even after 2000 miles, the header pipe on my Gladius was really tarnished. I originally tried Autosol, then WW (but that made no difference), so out with the Autosol again, green kitchen scourer and lots of elbow grease. Eventually came up a treat - just takes ages.

Re: Want to get your downpipes clean - EASIEST WAY
That stuff looks amazing I'm going to buy some!
Do you reckon it will remove the burnt on rubber off the link pipe from where my boot catches it when its hot |

Just don't get it anywhere near the end cans. oh and here is the unbeatable downpipe.....never before has a Raptor owner ever got a shine like this.....they're all still in shock over on the chapter       Just a little autosol is needed now to keep it up.

Re: Want to get your downpipes clean - EASIEST WAY
So everyone that's used this stuff, how have their pipes held up over time as the stuff sounds quite harsh?

Re: Want to get your downpipes clean - EASIEST WAY
I've been using it since April with no ill effects.
Don't spray it in your eyes though. Really. |
