Best way to remove coloured brake rub from White Tuffs ????

[Funkyworm]

Ok so i picked up a set of new WHITE tuffs the other week,  the guy has only used them once but with BLACK brake pads.

Anyone know a quick easy way to remove this without marking up the wheels ?

Thanks in advance

you could try T cut or similar, but I reckon careful application of a razor blade is the easy way!!

Yeah I've got the razor blade out but think I'll wait for daylight to try it properly.... Scotch brite pad maybe

Toothbrush and bleach

Stanley knife blade,hold it with both hands and kind of scrape it towards you with the blade at a slight angle

One of them white magic sponges will do it...

Its a proper cynt of a job in all honesty, anyone that says 'a bit of brake rub but easily sorted' has never done it themselves. I hate it and has put me off buying old tuffs in the past

Cif & 1 one of those curly metal pan scouring things Cal, scotchbrite works too bud I used purple on some zytecs recently

I used Boiling water and did a bit at a time, the hot water soffens the rubber left behind by the brakes and then used a razor for the stubbon bits.

orbital sander, check my z rim resto thread, thats what i used

Cream cleanser (Cif) on a kitchen scotch brite sponge ... works every time

   Stanley knife blade and drag it towards you keeping it level. Boring job but easy enough. Then go over it all with a scotchbrite scrubby pad thing...

Bolt the wheel in the frame or fork, lay the blade in the rim and run the wheel away from the blade edge while pressing firmly.

You will get a near finish to the rim and it's not tedious this way either

I use wet n dry. start with 180 grit and work up to 1200, then a bit of t cut. Tedious but works
