Can tuff pads be bleached?
« on: July 24, 2010, 04:10 PM »
Got some white tuffs pads yellowed with age. Anyone tried to bleach them? I'm guessing tape up the threads and give them a dip.....But would like to know if it'll bugger them up. Thanks!  :daumenhoch:

Yep, but put them in a tin and just submerge them with the bleach or the threads get shagged. Mine came out a treat :daumenhoch:

just rub them over with very fine wet and dry paper the yellow should only be on the surface,some rubbers and bleach don't normally work to well :-\
