Boiling off old tires
#27
Tex Wrote:boiling works ok, tires don't just pop off though..

oven works a lot better and my c-boas fell off the rims with ease...I didn't like the clean up I had to do on the rims/tires though, glue needed to be cleaned up all over the place and it literally took 2-3 hours to get it all off. At that point I wished I would have just bought new rims....

oven does stink up the house IMO and boiling does mess up a pan...


Roc, eric did the acetone thing on his c-boas and he like them with the hard compound....he said they work good.

I had the same problem with the oven way, it took forever to remove all the old glue.
So I figured I'd try the acetone way, not knowing it would turn my Boa C's hard afterwards
So I was going to buy new ones, but so far they seem to be working ok, even while being hard....After all, I did manage to win the A-main with them on Sunday Big Grin
