Brisa Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Just wondering if there is any way I can ease the process of removing pad material from magura backings. Any liquids I can use to eat at the glue?Don't want to use brute force and ruin some nice new pads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Boil them and pull them out with plyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 if the glue won't give, put them in the oven at 150-160°. i did it and they came off easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siders77 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Not sure if this will work for normal Magura backings.... It's an idea from Steve/Heatsink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisa Posted December 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 I gave the boiling water a go with no results. Oven worked! Cheers Janson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebor Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Yeah, how long before the backings start to melt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatmike Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Yeah, how long before the backings start to melt They're thermosetting plastic, so they're not going to melt any time soon!5 minutes seems to do the job, then a small allen key sized object to push them out from behind.Done it several times. P.s. Does anyone know where you can actually buy powerpad backings?Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
