:) I use a paint strip heat gun , this warms and reactivates the glue . Don't use a scraper as it will scratch the paint, I just use my thumbnail. After most of it is off I just remove the residue with paint thinner. It probably does not apply to your frame , but some are clearcoated...

8) Nice shape , those are gettin' harder to find like that. Vroom!

The Shimano Nexus that you have uses a "cog" that is interchangable with Shimano333, old and new Sturmey Archer. I would source your LBS , they should have some. :D

:) Just a snap-ring

:D Looks great RRD,a good foundation for any direction you take it. (psst psst psst) 8) Vroom!

:D Hi Rat Rods Dad , watch out you don't get hooked on this stuff! Personally, I like to change the rear cogs. This means usually changing the chain length. For this buy a chain removal tool , they are inexpensive. Of course you need some donor chain, I find buying a 22 or 23 tooth...

Good point Karfer, being deluted you won't get much of a burn but you should always wear rubber gloves and eye protection when handling chemicals and acids. SAFETY FIRST!!

:) I checked those pedals and there 1/2" so probably right BMX, they are "diamond back" brand . Maybe I'll take them apart , sharpen the teeth and polish them !!! :shock:

8) Very coooool! They got that moto look to them, Vroom

:D :D Check this out! My stepson came over yesterday bearing gifts and this was one of them. It'll get a little clean-up and maybe a fresh coat of semi-flat black.

:D Nothing better than riding a NEW BIKE Christmas morn!

:) I would think this would work on chains also, but I used to use muriatic acid, 1 part to 3 parts water in a bucket and let it soak for a couple of hours. This is good for rust removal on steel and when it seems clean rinse under cold water and then scrub with a stiff brush...

:oops: What happened to your buddy was true in my case too, I thought I would clean and wax my wife's Schwinn Breeze. When she came out to see how it looked she asked why the breeze lettering seemed faded! WHOOPS :(

:) I got some new tires and two LED lights from my wife. My Dad asked me what I wanted for Christmas and I said need some new clothes and something to amuse myself. So he got me a pair of pants and cut the pockets out! :lol:

It was Christmas eve and all through the house Not a creature was stirrin' Not even a RAT. Merry Christmas to all my fellow Ratters, and to all a good night. Vroom :wink:
