uwenr Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Just got a set of CPI small bore small flange left side raw pipes. Cant wait to put them on, love the raw look. But all the pipes I see out there start getting that rusty look. Any tips on keeping rust free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bode1 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 If it's like the unfinished Pro Circuits, I think you're supposed to use wd40 and a scotch brite pad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But all the pipes I see out there start getting that rusty look. Any tips on keeping rust free. Constant Fucking Maintenance.... The key is as said, clean them immediately after use...dry them..and WD 40 with a towel. The moisture rusts them out.... Raw pipes look bad ass....they are just a pain to maintain. Keep them clean and oiled....you'll be fine. If you get lazy...you'll pay the price. It's most critical near the cylinders. They get the most heat there, and are most prone to getting the mud, dirt, oil,etc. baked onto them.... Now how about some damn pictures???

2001Stroker Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Maybe you can find someone local that can powdercoat them with some hi-temp clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I was thinking, ya im way too lazy to clean around the cylinders. Or even clean it period, I usaully clean right before we leave to go race so it sits dirty for a couple of weeks. Hell its still dirty from the dune trip Halloween weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
