Believe it or not, wirewool & autosol worked for me on the whole system.

Not that I do it often, but I have done it occasionally.

Titanium is bloody hard, you'd struggle to damage it like that.

I've just remembered that black harpic oven cleaner has been suggested by a lot of people on here before too.
