excess test pipe carbon

anyone with a test pipe have any tips for either preventing or removing carbon build up on the rear bumber? I saw all the carbon buildup today and it took me awhile to scrub it all off.

Other tan going back to OEM I don't know of a solution. Applying a sealant over your car will make the clean-up easier.

diluted down apc and or clay bar.

Seal it with something durable and slick like Power Lock or C845 so it won't stick next time.

seal it iwth collinite 845 or 476, carbon will stick but it will be much easier to remove it but dont know how long it will last since im sure it gets hot. maybe try to clean it before it gets really bad
