Cleaning the exhaust?

I was on the highway and I caught a plastic bag under my car.

A couple of days later I found that the bag had melted on my axle-back.

What can I do to clean my axle-back and get the melted plastic off??

Ouch, that sucks, I'd try Never-Dull wadding polish. If that doesn't work, you can take it off the car and use a high speed buffer. Beyond that, I haven't a clue.

Whatever you end up doing, make sure you don't ruin the anti-rusting properties of the pipe. Sanding would get rid of it for sure but you'd have to paint it afterwards to keep rust away.
