Harley Boot Mark Remover

Harley Boot Mark Remover
Once again I'm thoroughly impressed with another Harley product. I should have taken before and after photos! Oh well! I did a thorough cleaning the other day and decided that it was time to do something about the boot marks that have been accumulating for the past two years on my pipes. I guess that I didn't try to remove them sooner because I'd rather be riding than cleaning? Well, today's a rainy day and I happened to pass the dealer yesterday and I picked up a bottle of their Boot Mark Remover, WOW - JUST WOW!
I'm trying not to fall prey to "mods" with this bike, but I'm thinking that it might be time for some boot guards!

I use carburetor cleaner or brake cleaner. Works great and I always have some in the garage. BTW, I noticed that you have a Heritage such as mine. This problem is inherent with the placement of the pipes on the Heritage. H-D has come up with a "pipe guard" that keeps your boot from touching the pipe. I plan on getting one this summer because I am tired of having to clean my pipes after every ride.

Then you can use superfine steel wool. A package of the stuff from Home Depot or Lowe's will last a very long time and it doesn't care who the boot maker is.
Seriously, I only recently learned how good this stuff is for cleaning up chrome. Amazing as you would think it would scratch but the "0000" superfine grade works wonders on scuffed up chrome.

Add WD40 and it will quickly remove any and all stuff burned onto pipes. Again...make sure to use 0000 steel wool. Less grades will scratch. 0000 will actually polish chrome.
