white skyways

[Haley]

is it possible to clean or "bleach" old white skyways 

[oberonspacefruit]

yes. bleach them to an inch of their lives.

Remove the axles, etc and coat the alloy hubs (if any) with grease or Vaseline. Soak the wheels in neat bleach for a week or two depending how bad they are

Here's a set I've just done ... I also scrubbed them with liquid cleanser (Cif) in between soaking
