Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 28, 2011 it did, just dissolved it and then i could quite easily scrape it off with a plastic scraper, then the last bits just wiped off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rams 0 Posted March 1, 2011 Why not leave it as it is? Give it a good polish and job done? I have some very good condition pads if you really want to replace them? Some do stainless steel cut inserts but depends the on what you like? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted March 1, 2011 i just like keeping things as they meant to be, so keen to replace it. also doesn't it help keep things quiet? what are the pads you have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hipcity 10 Posted April 15, 2012 How long did it take you to get all of the glue off. I've used the Tardis, but it still left some of the glue on there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
