jim-p Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 you could try nitromorse but then you have to lacquer it so it doesnt rust ecause it takes that many layers of paint off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan6061 Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Another vote for oven cleaner! Mr Muscle is a good one to use. Just pour it in a pot, sit the rim in it, and turn it bit by bit until it's all off.Whoever said it'd rust, they're wrong. Aluminium can't rust, and you can only anodize aluminium.

indianatrials Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Ok, the rim is on a wheel, so i cant soak it, cause the spokes are black and i wanna keep them that way. Ill try the caustic soda (lye) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 (edited) sorry but why not tape the spokes with some sort of stupidly strong tape to keep the colour that is of course if oven cleaner wont unstick the cellotape?

Luke Rainbird Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Tape on spokes is stupid, trust me...If you're that fussed about keeping the spokes black then de-build the wheel first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoze Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Re read my last post.Oh now it makes sense, although i cant see it working very well I thought you were recommended super sticky tape to de-anodise the rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 on that note, can you grind ceramic rims ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psycholist Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 It would defeat the purpose of having ceramic coating on the braking surfaces of the rims in the first place, but it can be done, it just means you've paid twice the money for the same braking performance as a non-ceramic rim with a ground surface ...

Guest Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 i was told that my rim (when i had) it was ceramic and you cut grind it, it was silky smooth it was a monty 221pr wheel set ducty gold/champagne colouring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
