Geko Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Hi have a pair of ugly looking TAs for cleanup. What would be the best dipping solution before finishing with jet and wire brush ? Surface isn't a problem, hollow parts are so I would need something drastic. Some pointers please. As always S Quote Link to post Share on other sites
len1 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 you could try a paint stripper, and then get them media blasted. Len Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 If it is tar, paraffin (kerosene) then alloy wheel cleaner. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisR-4A Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Be carefull if you have removed the bushes that the bores don't end up oversize especially if fitting poly bushes as they don't expand as much as rubber and could end up a loose fit. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Morrison Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 What exactly is it Stef? If something like under seal or such, scrape most off with plastic spatula and a warm air gun, clean residue with cellulouse thinners/white spirit etc. John. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tim T Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 I used a heat gun and then cleaned off the residue using Tar and Glue remover. Worked very well. Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
