Brilliant RC Magic Pipe Protect

Brilliant RC have introduced their new Magic Pipe Protect, a product to keep polished exhaust pipes nice and shiny. A small amount of the chemical is enough to prevent a new and shiny exhaust pipe from getting dirty too fast. Applied before hitting the track the first time, owners can simply wipe it off afterwards to keep the pipe in a shiny condition. In addition Magic Pipe Protect has a higher thermal conductivity compared to conventional silicone greases, in order to prevent the exhaust pipe from becoming thermally insulated.
