Kranswurm Posted February 22, 2009 Share I had a major thorn which resulted in a max out of a mixture of OKO and Joes.Needless to say my anodised frame and rear suspension is covered in latex.Any suggestions in how to remove this mess easily without stripping components?Clean Green does not have this in its job description Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnfitnessFreak Posted February 23, 2009 Share You could try Prepsol - a pretty powerful degreaser available from your local mica hardware store for about R70 for 5litres. Use an old clean green spray bottle or something to spray it on - leave for a few minutes and then spray off with a hose, or better - a high-pressure cleaner.
