Boot Marks On Exhaust
« on: October 10, 2010, 09:51:19 AM »

Ended up with melted boot heel marks from my passenger at MV 10.  What are you guys using to get the really tough ones off.  After looking at my left side pipe, I am surprised her boot even has a heel left.  LOL

Thanks

SOS pads.  Try 'em. :2vrolijk_21:  Don't even need to rub hard, the soap in them does most of the work.  You'll be amazed.

And make sure to use oven cleaner on the motor.....takes everything off......ROFLOL :huepfenlol2:

Now honestly...oven cleaner will take the boot marks off the pipes...heat the pipes up a little and make sure to keep the scotch brite pad moist with oven cleaner.....Do not get any on the motor....it will remove everything :nervous:

Thanks for all your tips.  ended up putting over cleaner on a paper towel, let it soak on the pipes awhile, that got some of it off, this chit was thick and in 5 places.  Next went to Flitz, got a little more off, then Dupont chrome cleaner just about all gone.  Next White Diamond finished the removal then sealed the shield with Master Formula Sealer Gloss.

What took about a minute to put on took over an hour to take off and a whole lot of elbow grease.  May be time to put her back on her own bike again or have her ride barefoot.  LOL

I will only sus SOS pads.  Never had a scratch.   DO NOT USE THE GREEN SCOURING PADS.  They will clean but leave your pipes dull.

I have always used a copper penny to remove all kinds of stuff off my pipes.  It works great.

I use a product called "road rub" or something to that from my local dealer and it works great.

I have used Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.  You'll need to rub but seems to work great.  Cool pipes only. :2vrolijk_21:

Okay sounds CRAZY but steel wool: yes steel wool triple or four 0000 will remove the hardest boot or rain pants marks and even the hardest bugs.
Wont scratch at all promise.  Dont be Scared.
