Getting melted rubber off pipes

[speedknot]

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get melted boot rubber off the exhaust pipes.  I have to chrome conti style pipes and for some reason my left heel rubs on the pipe where it meets the header.

get it hot and while it is hot...take a scotch-brite pad to it and get it off....

I'm going to try the petroleum solvent method when I get home tonight.  Since the chrome is in perfect condition I would hesitate using an abrasive.  As hard as chrome is, it still likes to scratch.

i use fine steel wool pads on chrome all the time and makes it shine up nice
i would get em hot and try ultra fine steel wool.

hmmmmmm....don't really know the answer to that one

no you can't.  use a brillo pad with soap and lightly rub the pipe but the same color/look will return.  work it slowly with lots of water but again it's not worth the time since they will turn again.
