How to get melted fabric off of exhaust header?

The nylon will smell like a bag of smashed assholes

Thank you for posting that, it's been a particularly shitty day for me

It will take some elbow grease but these should work.

Took road tar, burnt wire sheath, and random black stuff off my pipes. Not to mention you can go over the whole pipe in 5 minutes and make them look brand new.

Can get them at most home supply stores...


Used them on advice from Ryanracer, certainly worked well.

Dry Ice may get it hard enough that you can chip it off.

That's just a SWAG, I haven't done it. YMMV

You're braver than I am.

OK for the faint of heart steel wool then ..   I melted boot all over mine and scotchbrite 7448 cleaned it right up

I never said it wouldn't work.

You have to admit that you had to blend out your cleaning job.

Scotchbrite does alter the surface of almost everything it touches.

 I once used some muriatic acid I had on hand on mine. It did clean them up some but did not make them look like new.
