Burnt on Plastic/Fabric on Exhaust Can

[Mike Rocket]

Better test the oven cleaner on a inconspicuous spot as I have read it is caustic and will damage the chrome. The best product is Road Rub, but it is no longer available.

Thanks. I will test an unseen part first

Has someone succeeded in removing the stickers from the TOR mufflers?

Sounds like you've totally ****ed it...you could gin-arse around trying all of these extremely expensive and time consuming snake-oil home remedies being touted by this bunch of dodgy electronic vagrants, OR, you could buy a nice after-market pipe that is already clean and makes more power thereby improving the overall fuel efficiency of your engine which in turn means you can buy beer to drink during the time you would have had to spend trying to clean the original pipe ... you're welcome

Simply buy non-caustic oven cleaner. It is available.

Thanks. I bought some oven cleaner today and it surprisingly says on the tin do not use on chrome.
I need to look for the non caustic type.

After a ride I put the dust cover over mine and put two holes in it from the hot exhausts, thereby leaving a black deposit on them.
Once it was cold, I used the edge of my debit card to scrape it off. Perfect job and the finish was like new again. HTH.

Thanks. Another option for me

Spray on oven cleaner, and let it warm back up.

Didn't @CanberraR3 try that oven cleaner and FUBAR the finish of his pipes???

I have had good success with mineral spirits and a soft, clean cotton rag or cloth. You may have to slightly warm up the exhaust a bit to make removal a bit easier, though.

They'll be easier to clean when they are hot....as to the chemical...there are several. Blue Job will bring back the shine after you removed the crusty bits. Blue Job will even remove the yellow from over heated pipes!
