oil on the pipes
So I got an oil leak and it baked the oil on the pipes....Is there anything that will clean it off without scratching them up?
Thanx in advance! Jr |

Are they painted, stainless, or chrome?

WD-40 on cold pipes, Goop hand cleaner works too. Turtle wax chrome polish (with diatomatic action).
Use a sponge, or a very mild scratch pad made out of plastic. It won't scratch the metal. Or you can use the Kenneth Moore system of immersing the entire motorcycle in warm salt water for 72 hours. Wouldn't do that myself, but some swear by it...

Oven cleaner works good, or goo gone as well.
