I saw that skyway bleaching guide posted by 2Fresh, very useful. Will the color of other skyways be affected if soaked in water with just a little bleach, does anyone know?

There are loads of posts on here about cleaning the muddy funksters if you search

Personally Ajax them as hard as you can!!

Forget the water,thin bleach em,litres of it.My white Skyways were in a bin full off neat thin bleach for three weeks and they came out nice.As the lads say,ajax works,so does fine sandpaper(they have to be really poor for that though).
Just dont try bead blasting,its too strong(unless you get a blaster who has a low powered blaster).

I wouldn't think bleach would be a good idea on any Tuffs unless they are white, and if you do go down that road, you must keep an eye on the alloy hubs, the bleach can eat them.

If you need to get them back to an even colour, dye them with Dylon. Check the Tech section for the thread.
