Default Xceed pipe cleaner

Anyone tried the xceed pipe cleaner to clean your exhaust pipe, it was quite useful. After dipping and rinsing, the pipe was restored to its original shines.
But the chemical itself is very acidic, very dangerous to use.
Does anyone know what acid it is? Someone said it is hydrofluoric acid.

I just wipe my pipe after each run with a bit of cloth with the fuel on. Takes off the dirt and leaves it nice and clean with minimal expense.

Carbon-off it's an industrial oven cleaner. Pretty strong stuff.

I am using creolin to clean my pipes. Just put them in there for a couple hours and then rinse them while cleaning with a sponge.

Thanks, I used Carbon off before, I saw the xceed and want to try it.
People using it, just dip the pipe in, I believe for less than 10, 20 mins, the things just off from the pipe.
But it's very acidic. Need to wear a pair of industrial gloves and use next to the tap.
I was told a guy who used this, spilled over his skin, he needed to have Skin implantation.
Highly corrosive.

I still use this method as well. Just some radiator coolant (commonly known as antifreeze in the USA) and a crock pot. I went and bought a cheap crock pot for this purpose. Works well enough for me.

as mentioned, easiest and cheapest way is creolin. no heating up things, nothing... just put the pipe and stuff in it for a while, then rinse it...
