Oven pride is nicely packaged and in a bag for a reason ........ the ladies use it around the kitchen so it doesn't damage there freshly manicured nails ::) Caustic is in a plain white bottle with a skull and crossbones on the front 8)
Defo use it outside , if you inhale a good mouthful of the fumes it literally takes your breath away !!

I did this today on some black anodized Haro rims, worked a treat. I wore marigolds and glasses and used an old toothbrush. I put 3 litres of warm water into an old washing up basin and about 250-300 grammes of caustic soda (£1.50 from Wilkinsons) stirred it with a big screwdriver and put the rim in, left it to soak for 5 mins max, then used the toothbrush on it, kept rotating it and repeated the toothbrush method until I got back to where I started, took about 45 mins to strip 2 wheels.
I have polished one with Peek, one more to do.
Add Caustic Soda to water, not the other way round!!!!!!!!!
