Could you wrap the pipe in tee-shirts? Seriously, what do they use to convey
the bleach to the wash-down nozzles, and what are the nozzles made of?

The wash down procedure they are speaking of is Bleach, ranging from 3% to 
12.5%.  That stuff will eat stainless sheet metal, black pipe, galvanized 
pipe (not as fast as black) and I expect copper.  We have had limited 
success using a spray on galvanized coating from the NAPA parts house.  The 
very limited work we have done in food plants did not include stainless 
pipe.
