Hi,

since tere is a threrad currently about gluing tires, i have a question about that. I got some rims that have a gluebed of "Clement" red glue on them. What would be the best way to remove that? i tried gazoline (the stuff you put in your "Zippo" lighter - it works well with the white glue) and turpentine ersatz but that didn't bring me far.

any suggestion appreciated!
