What do you use to get crap off your pipes?

"Seeker of Freedom"
The easiest solution I have used is Easy Off Oven CLeaner. When you get back from a ride wait about 10 minutes (just enough for the pipes to cool a little) then spray the spot with the oven cleaner. Wait 15 mins or so and the spot should come off pretty easily while wiping with a rag.

I ask this question, because we just got back from a ride yesterday, and wouldn't you know it. The wife touched her boot to my pipe. Actually it happens prob every other ride. However it is the first burn mark of the year.
Anyways, I have been useing " easyoff " over cleaner and it seems to work pretty well. You need to put in some elbo grease but it does come off.
Any other secrets from around the house?

Use a penny but make sure it is pre-1982. Pennies prior to 1982 were 95% copper and 5% zinc. Copper is softer than chrome so it will not scratch. Pennies after 1982 are 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper so you don't want to use them as they may scratch. I used a penny several times and it works great followed by some chrome polish. ( I am referring to USA pennies)
