Normal table salt is ideal and available in 1kg bags ... I normally use 2kg when doing a pair of wheels and keep the water hot for best results too  :daumenhoch:

Both rims or wheels at the same time mate ... fully immersed which helps to keep a consistent colour  :daumenhoch:

I've just finished a pair of early Tuff 1's which were well faded ... I'll upload some photos soon  ;)
