    So I must have had my leg a little too close to the exhaust, for a little too long and have managed to melt a tiny bit of my textile trousers onto my lovely Arrow exhaust...just wondering if anyone has done this before and has any remedies for getting it off?! Thanks!

    Once the pipe is hot, use a flat bladed knife to remove the majority of material, then brillo/Autosol
