Acetone - which?
 

Hi all,

I’m Looking at getting 5 litres of acetone to remove the old tyres from my wheels.

There are lots of suppliers on the Bay of E but the purity of the acetone varies.

Does it matter which acetone I use?

Thanks for reading.

Don't bother with acetone
 

Go and buy the cheap food steamer from argus(£15 approx)and cut out your insert and as much of the old tyre as you can.90 minutes in the steamer nice clean wheel,you will need a thick glove and pliers to remove the of tyre,.. Cheaper and safer... Have recommended this to loads of people...

The more pure the acetone is the better it will work

+1 for the steamer. If you are tight like me dont cut the tyre off and they can then be reused on you sons basher. :thumbsup:

Hi All,

Just a heads up.

Sainsburys selling Murphy Richards steamers for £10 so be quick!

Doing some wheels right now!!

Top tip that one!
just claimed wifes old steamer did a couple pairs saved inserts aswell
dumped rims in clean acetone just to clean them up

works a treat
