Cleaning Titanium Termignoni System

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Marc Anton, Jan 15, 2017.

  1. Afternoon all, I'm sure this has been discussed many times before but just wondered what is the preferred/proven way to clean exhaust components. Recently purchased bike, which is very low mileage, would like to get exhaust looking somewhat like new

  2. Metal polish
     
  3. Zircotec ceramic coating with a 3-year guarantee. Job done as you simply jet-wash it clean each time.
     
  4. Leave it alone, patination looks good.
     
  5. And welcome Dave
     
  6. please use autosol bluing remover, followed by autosol stainless cleaner (its mainly stainless not tit)

  9. Hello, leave it alone ;)
     
  10. Morning All - nice to see a bit of sunshine, still to bloody cold to ride though! Just wanted to thank all those who responded for their advice - gonna give the Autosol a go tomorrow - it worked on the end of the end cans, so hopefully should be good of the rest of the exhaust - I'll let you know how it goes - have a good weekend

  12. morning all - just an update for those who are interested - as the man (keith916) said, elbow grease will do - Scotchbrite pads from eBay also helped a lot. Pleased with the result IMG_7778.JPG IMG_7777.JPG IMG_7778.JPG IMG_7777.JPG

  13. Titanium will polish to a mirror, chrome-like finish. However, it is very hard, harder than stainless steel, so does require more elbow grease.

    I still maintain that Autoglym liquid metal polish is the best, having tried all sorts.
     
  14. As the Flat one said though it is stainless :smileys:
