Removing melted plastic from my exhaust tail pipe?
During a trip to the NEC a while back, my exhaust came off its hanger on the right and was resting against the bumper and skirt trim. Its melted a big chunk out of the bumper and is now covered in melted plastic.
I've scraped most of the lumps off but the metal is quite badly stained. Is there anything I can use to make it all nice and shiny again? Don't know if theres any way of using a brillo and then using something to polish it up again. Really appreciate some help becuase it looks really scruffy now :( |
if it is just stained something mildly abrasve should shift it - thinking of brasso or a light cutting compound.
if there are still bits of plastic stuck to it, i'd try a rag soaked with carb cleaner or acetone or a similar mild solvent to soften them then remove them. Good luck, TT |
No ideas on the cleaning apart from stuff liek brasso as per what TT said.
Totally different idea, but what about gently heating the tailpipe so it goes different colours, a bit like the titanium back boxes that you can get. |
Best way is to put it in a freezer, provided you have a big enough freezer that is..!;)
