ovenpride will only work on anno.... (blue hubs) .. the white ones , as others have said are probably powder or paint.

ive tried to different types of nitromors and to be honest you could bath in the stuff thats how bad it is compared to the way nitromors used to be years and years ago it would have lifted your skin off,so now i am going to have to look to see if there is something good to take off powder coating.

thanks for the replys guys cheers

now slowly:
right now you got (I) Arayas and (II) hubs to strip - and so far you've tried (A) ovenpride and (B) permatex on both.

on the arayas and hubs neither (A) ovenpride NOR even  (B) permatex (!) worked!? :shocked:  (A):.......you must be doing smth wrong, like not leaving the ovenpride soak long enough in the plastik bag, rinsing it off too quickly and without working it with a brush etc...


maybe this restoring some of my bikes is a very bad idea,as nothing goes right for me lol
  ....don't be silly, we've got the best bunch around here, i'll be damned if we couldn't get your rims and hubs stripped! :tickedoff:

hey mate,no i was looking to find out were you would get permatex...i went to a auto shop there and got strong paint stripper so hopefully it will do the job,am going to go and get more oven pride to do the arayas again,but i will put it on with a brush instead of using the big bag,ive loads of stuff here that i need to be stripping but its findind the right stuff to use.

Job done  :daumenhoch:
