I've got most off it off but there is one spot that is hard to remove. I've heard of using tar remover, gasoline, Easy Off. What do you think?

Look in the automotive section at the store, they have something called bug and tar remover. It will take care of it.

i'm uncertain in the event that they sell SOS pads there, yet they're metallic wool pads, with cleansing soap infused in them. First step, initiate your motorcycle up, and enable it heat up some. (no longer for an hour...in basic terms for a couple of minutes) Get the pipe heat. Them get a heavy pair of leather-based works gloves, and a bucket of warm water. Get the pad moist, and gently rub on the spot the place the nylon is melted on. With slightly staying power and elbow grease, it might come out finding just about as good as new.

Any solvent, gas ,paint thinner ,W-D 40 etc. Just be sure to follow it with Windex to clean of any residue or that will discolor. If that does not do it ,easy off or paint stripper and follow with glass cleaner. For really tough stuff (Even Bluing) there is a killer product called 'Blue Job' that cleans really well without dulling**Not Blue Away** .Blue Job requires some rubbing but gives a great finish product. **Do not use steel wool ,it scratches**

At work I use a wax remover by dupont. The numbers are 3939, if you have any auto body shops that use dupont products you may be able to buy some from them. 3939 works crazy good, spray some on, let it sit for a minute, spray a little more on then scrub/scrape.

WD40 will do it, I have better luck with a regular penetrating oil, the WD is a little wimpy compared to "penetrant". If it's pretty hardened (as it may be on a muffler) the carb/choke cleaner or brake cleaner. But spray it on a rag, not direct on the pipe itself.

You gotta be careful with some solvents, they can actually corrode and flake your chrome...best thing to use is industrial oven cleaner. Works well on billet aluminum too.
