How to remove anodising.......

(1/4) > >>

oldschool rider:
Hey Guys,
               A young N/s rider that I ride with occasionally wants to remove annodising from a brand new chainring to expose the metal then polish it up, what's the best way to remove it without damaging the chainring?

is nitromors the way to go ?


Thanks in advance,
Steve.

Goto B&Q and buy the smallest Costic Soda they got about £3
Pour half into a plastic container/bottom of bucket and enough water just to cover the chainring.
Use a set of tongues or rubbergloves to place in .. then keep checking every 30seconds,, should be done in 2mins.

easy

nah oven pride oven cleaner in a bag but you anodised product in and just rub the oven cleaner into it every minute of so
works great :)

steve Beech TA:

The easiest is ether oven pride or caustic soda.

With caustic soda it literally takes 30 40 seconds so dont leave it to long.
You have to watch out for the fumes with caustic soda.
Dot get it on your hands.
wash thoroughly afterwards.
Dont do it near the children.

With oven pride you can put it in the bag provided and leave it.
relatively fume free.
the usual precautions when using a corrosive.


hope this helps mate  :daumenhoch:
