Exhaust pipe cleaning & restoration
#6
Just two days ago I found a tube of Autosol that was my dad's as he was a huge motorcycle enthusiast. This tube must be 20 years old.
I found a old Vance & Hines 4-1 header that is very hard to find for my 83 collector bike. I had the header/connector pipe and muffler internals ceramic
coated and then needed to give the aluminum can a face lift. I though about buying a pedestal buffer but knew it would not get much use. I used 2000 grit wet sand paper on a 90 degree alternating direction sand then used the Autosol. In no time the aluminum can looked great! I finished it off with carinaria wax.

I have also used it on the RS's header to remove bluing. I didn't work it in hard and did get desired results. I also made sure to remove any residue before getting the system hot.
Autosol is amazing but recommend first using it on a spot not visible as a check.
