Re: Cleaning up nos exhaust pipes

I have used 0000 steel wool followed by Acetone. Use gloves and a new clean rag when applying acetone. It wont hurt you but will remind you of any cuts or scrapes you may have on your hands.

Gardner exhaust provide a chemical like Nev-r Seize that appears to be silicone based. It is supposed to seal the pipes yet provide lubrication during the fitting process.

A muffler shop I have dealt with for yaers used a grey/black compound they affectionally refer to as "Bearsh%t" for sealing exhaust.
