I have auto sol but to TBH I found it not that great so I bought a tin of Brasso Wadding which works an awful lot better .

I agree with Sam 63 about the Brasso wadding.

I let my pipes get very black at the bottom with caked-on deposits (naughty I know) and had real problems shifting it. In the end I resorted to trying some Wonder Wheels I found in the garage (don't let it near my wheels!!). Applied it carefully with a small brush, left it to soak and rinsed well with water, then finished off the remaining deposits with a Brillo pad and the Brasso. Sounds a bit drastic I know, but the result was great.

I won't be letting them get in that state again :rolleyes:

Two products we recommend that are excellent at cleaning exhausts...

Duragloss Metal Cleaner and RaceGlaze Alutech. Both are great products, good value for money and achieve excellent results!
