Help! A plastic bag melted to my exhaust.

[librathe13th]

While riding last week I notice a white plastic bag blow from under the car in front of me and before I could react it went under my spyder. When I got home I saw it had melted to my exhaust connection pipes. It is a real eye sore. Any advise how to remove with out causing any more damage? I heard something about easy off oven cleaner ?!?!

Easy off or your could try some fine steel wool or even some crumpled up aluminum foil.

Plastic bags are cheap and easy to get. I think you should splurge and buy a whole NEW plastic bag!

Did it melt to the pipes or muffler? If it melted to the pipes use a heat gun on high and work slowly heating it up and quickly wiping it off. If on the muffler painted area that's a tougher job but the same procedure will work just be careful of the heat on the paint.

Let's see..!!

about all you can do is wire brush all you can then start it up and heat whats left and brush some more...oven cleaner is really not a good idea unless your pulling the pipes apart...:dontknow:
