the grease is on the inside...just run a damp towel through them a couple times, then use a dry one

Re: Intercooler piping

I cleaned the cutting grease out with a towell and some gas. They came out shiney. Just be sure the gas is removed before welding.

Our kits are mild steel. We will be offering aluminized kits soon, but probably will never offer stainless steel.

Oh ok, so you have to spray them with something to protect against corrosion after youre done cutting/welding/fabricating?
