The inside will always be black mate what ever you do to clean it. As soon as you start driving it will go black again.

Brilllo pad and shampoo for the main shit, then finish it off with autosol, or meguiars metal polish and a cloth. I used to use Mr Muscle oven cleaner, just spray, leave and wash out.

I have a 4" tail pipe so plenty of room to give a good polish, it always reminds me of a ex girlfriend.

Better try that if it's thick, I think only some strong chemicals will do the work. If it comes off well and good from thereon try to clean it often in order to prevent it from becoming too thick, though however hard you try on the cleaning it will become black again.
