Could This Be The End For Sooty Decatted Exhausts??
Was in the small Independent Garage for a service Yesterday.
He had a couple of Nice Imprezas there with immaculate botties.
The Guy explained he T Cuts the outside & inside & spends a bit of time doing that.
When it does get Sooty again, he just wipes the inside/outside with a Kitchen Towel/ Duster & all the Soot wipes straight off.
It forms a protective coat on it.
Just done mine and, it's come up brilliant.
If this works (and I think it does) it'll save a lot of time & effort.
I hope this Tip works for you all.

I'd be suprised about the protective coating, with the heat of the exhaust it would just melt it.
I always clean my exhaust when washing the car, stops it getting manky and only takes a minute to do.

The colour of the inside of a tail pipe is a good indication of how the engine is running. I therefore like mine the way it is, which is a nice sooty grayish brown..

I would take Picices but it's hissing down.
I've been to the Pub this evening, given it a bit of a blast on the way there & back.
Only had 1 pint>>>
Looked at the rear it still looks clean!
I will look at it tomorrow.
