    'bang!!! and the dirt (including your exhaust) is gone..'

    Yes. If your intention is to melt a hole in the back of the car. That stuff is fooking lethal.

    No way it would harm your exhaust , never used it on a vehicle myself.

    i used a petrol soaked rag to clean a tar coated exhaust trim recently.. and i had no problems.
    lot cheaper than buying a special detergent

    Try Cif Stainless Steel cleaner, uses it on mine and it really does wonders. Costs about €5 in Tesco.

    The extreme heat on an exhaust wouldn't have a great effect I'd say. Anyone who's turned on an electric hob that's been cleaned with kitchen cleaner will know what I mean!
