Cleaning Chewing Gum from Bearings

Recommended Posts

I think the gum stuck to my chassis when I went to retrieve a lost puck in the grass as I skated around it started to melt all over the place and wound it self up around the axles on the outside of the bearings(BSB Swiss). Any recommendations on a cleaning product? WD40? I don't wan't to it get inside of the bearings.

Thanks

Try disassembling everything and put the stuff in the freezer for a bit. The gum will get brittle and peel or chip right off. I would still examine the bearings and clean them just incase. Hope this helps!

WD40 should actually help getting the gum off, just clean and lube the bearings afterwards and it's fine
