How to Unlube topre board?
« on: Sat, 02 January 2016, 17:27:15 »
Hello guys. I wan't to ask you how do I unlube topre? I use the wrong lube on my board. Can I just wipe it with cloth? I don't want to make the full wash for this board because I just lube this side:

i'm pretty sure the slider rails are made out of abs. if that is true, you do not want to use 99% alcohol; it will damage the plastic. you can use rubbing alcohol, but you would have to water it down a bunch.

on man thats going to be a pain in the ass lube stays on like a plague and you can't use alcohol on that abs case. I'd just recommend to leave it in a tub of soapy water the lubed will eventually lift off.

i had this thought as well. this method would probably be the 'safer' bet..
