Bleach has fooked my alloy hub Tuff's....

<< < (5/9) > >>

1. Yes, maybe speak to coloured tuffs on here, or put an ad up. You should only replace as a last resort though as the replacments are bolted  :daumenhoch:

2. Should be fine to cover i had a 17t on mine  :daumenhoch:

18t will cover it easy, 17t shimano in nice shiny silver will do though.

Right,

its been a while getting round to doing the polishing...

but i think i havent made much difference: :'(






(last pic shows other side of hub that had been polished by previous owner)

i started with wet n dry, then used a dremmel type polishing kit from B & Q - basically different hard to soft wire brushes and polishing pads
as you can see refurbing parts isnt my area of expertise :D
i'm not really sure what to do now?

any thoughts guys...really need your help on this one...
 :LolLolLolLol:
thanks

hate to put you down mate, but its a terrible shame  :(

Keep going with the wet and dry, they will get better. Go a bit more course to shift some of the pitting.
Scotchbrite pads to finish, green or red, green are slightly more abrasive.
