removing paint from rubber

Post by maia » Fri Mar 05, 2010 8:57 pm

I've got a rear fender mudflap that has some silver overspray on it and it looks like it's been there a while (it won't scrape off with a fingernail). Anyone have any tips on removing paint from rubber without screwing it up? Thanks

Hi Maia

Just dab a rag in thinners (not too wet) and just rub gently at the paint. That should soften the paint but shouldn't attack the rubber surface. Don't soak it just rub with the dampened cloth.

coil numbers differ

Post by maia » Sat Mar 06, 2010 10:01 pm

Just got around to repainting the coils and mounts and noticed some numbers on the bottoms and of course I didn't note this before I dis- assembled them. Need I take note of these numbers when I reassemble? Are these right and left hand coils? thanks
