p_ruskin Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 hey, i have been using my CNC rockpads for a while now and they have been pretty shocking most the time, so i would like to replace the pad material with some heatsink yellow pads how do i remove the pad from the backing? EDIT: are these pads also a good choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 It should just pull out. But if your having issues, grab your mum/siter's hair dryer and whack it on full heat for a bit and heat up the metal. This should soften the glue enough to pull the pads out. If your still having issues put them in boiling water for a bit and the glue should losten up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigman Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 What problems are you having with the Rockpad CNC's? I assume they have the blue compound material? These are imense pads, I have never had a problem with mine, nice sharp medium grind and make sure they are set up nice and square and they should be fine. If not, they should just pull out, when I put new re-fills in mine they came out pretty easy. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam well they were amazing for the first day or so great bite great hold and in the soaking wet, but then the quality decreased rapidly, i tried re-grinding, cleaning the surface, changing rims and changing the type of grind but nothing worked. now there is barely any hold, makes no sound at all and the bite is pathetic so i think a change of pad is in order Edited May 27, 2010 by onza limey20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogo Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 Oven for 10 minutes, put them in a cold oven put the heat to about 150 and wait ten minutes for it to warm up. In no time you'll have a tasty treat for the whole family to enjoy. But seriously though, it does work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
