Luke Dunstan Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 I used to have a block the size of my head, But where do you find it these days? Maybe I could buy a block and sell it in small chunks on Ebay or something? But do any shops sell it? in small quantities. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STICK is the right word. STICK to the rim, so the wheel doesn't move when you expect it to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Dunstan Posted June 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Why not yet? Because I don't have the wheel yet? Going to wait to see if my new build rides well before I grind or adapt anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexxRogers Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 What about monty spray, is that any good? Not in the slightest. Takes ages to dry and lasts about 2 minutes. Waste of money IMO. Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7up_elise Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I used to use tar all the time with my hs33's! We just used to spin the wheel quick and put a light line around the rim! Used to last ages to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
