Restoring blue tuffs

(1/1)

WINI:
Hi Guys,

I have a pair of blue tuffs that are sounds but have black brake rub on the rim and a few spots that look ingrained/stained.  I know the process for dying, but is it worth bleaching for a while first or is this not a good idea with coloured tuffs?  And what colour/make of dye will I need for blue?

Any help and tips would be appreciated as I've never dyed before, unlike Jeebus of course....Happy Easter!   :daumenhoch:

the brake rub will clean off, the stains might not come out, I wouldnt dye them unless they're faded, bleaching them wont do anything unless they're white already

Riding all the way to rampcity with my brakes on may take some time.  See you next year... :LolLolLolLol:
