    I have a few old tar spots and bits of crap burnt onto my chrome pipes > , any suggestions how to remove them? I have tried auto glym tar spot remover and their metal polish but they won't touch 'em, they work great on things like forks that havn't got hot, I have tried chipping them off, that seems best but so tedious and boreing...Thanks.......Rod

    Thanks Jen, tried WD40, I always wipe all the chrome over with it, every now and again, as there is a lot of chrome on the Raptor
