Hi guys

A friend of mine used to buy a wax protector for his downpipes and rear can called 151 dream machine wax protector. Apparently its really good stuff buti can't find any to buy anywhere. Any ideas where i could find some and has anyone else used it before?

regards.

I wouldn't have thought the wax could withstand the temperatures an exhaust gets up to. Belgom Alu (which leaves a protective layer of wax as well) didn't work that great on my RVF's frame for example (they get too hot on the little NCs).

ACF50 suits me fine, although it's no miracle cure and not sure if it would give a decent finish on polished surfaces.

^^^What he said.

[edit] apart from specialist paints there is nothing i'm aware of that survives the heat on downpipes.
