Rich Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 I drove over a sheet of it yesterday and pulled it out when I got home but some has already melted on to the exhaust and it stinks once it's got hot! Any tips on how to remove it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phipck Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 when the exhaust is cold you will have the best chance or removing it, hopefully as it is a thermally reactive plastic it should be brittle or at least harder so picking it off may work. If not, then im not sure other than excessive heat to burn it away and wire wool to scrape it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Cold and a blade is how i used to get it off and yes it really stinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I'll give that a go, the smell is horrible! Will it eventually burn off if I leave it? The car in front drove over it and it came out the rear but when I didn't see it come out I knew it had got stuck somewhere Damn lowered cars!

Tony Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Normally it gets stuck on the cat and will take ages to burn off.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 It's up near the diff end I think but can't see properly without jacking the car up. I need to do something, it stinks, although after turning the engine off it goes fairly quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I didn't get time to look at it today so will have to suffer the smell for a couple of days longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
