Cleaning mufflers

[Rodney Kirstine]

What are some of the methods and cleaners/polishes that you guys use to clean and polish the pipes on your nitro helis?

Had not really ever thought about it Rodney but I would think that any chrome polish would work.  Maybe even Brasso.  that stuff will polish anything.

Hi Rodney,

I use an auto detailers metal polish, this either comes in a tube paste form or in a liquid. I use it with a soft microfibre cloth to polish out any burnt on stains or marks.

Some compounds can be very harsh and aggressive so get something that is fine or suitible for aluminium.

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Ross

Mothers polish works well

+1 on the mothers. (small white jar with red label)

Mothers and Cornstarch. The mothers past on first and then sprinkle the cornstarch on it and get to rubbin. The Cornstarch acts as the abrasive yet won't scratch. My pipes look like mirrors. I'll Motorcylce Frame Polishing trick. Just a little messy. Also a bench grinder with a polishing wheel and clay stick works well.
