Default what should i use to clean up intercooler and piping?

well i got a used greddy kit today and i was wondering what i can use to clean up the intercooler and the pipes, they are pretty dirty and i just wanna clean them up and repaint them if necessary..

also is it possible to spray the downpipe with a high temp paint because it has a cpl little spots of surf rust comin and i wanna clean it up with sandblaster and then paint it to keep it from rusting again

thanks again

The intercooler and pipes you can clean with any liquid detergent. If the pipes are painted, stay away from solvents. As for the downpipe, high temp paint works fine but will ocasionally need to be touched up since it has a tendency to flake off.

I simple greened the hell out of my intercooler.

It got a ton of the **** that was stuck between the fins out.
