The manual says I should use isopropyl alcohol. do you know where I can buy it? Wallmarts and other do not have it.

Tks

Nail polish remover might mess up your paint. If you have a black frame. Im not sure about that but it is used to remove paint. Thats what nail polish is basicly.

Hair dryer and a plastic paint scraper and lots of patience.

Isopropyl Alcohol usable as a solvent is sold by the gallon at Lowes or Home Depot in the paint section. It's like 70-95% concentration - and is what they're referring to. Don't know if they sell it in quarts or not.

Kroger and drugstores and wal mart will have it in different concentrations. Get the highest you can find, 90 percent or so.

Handy stuff to have around anyway.

Found it at Kroger's ... now I need some sunny days to glue the new puck (and ride )

Unfortunately I scratched the frame in a couple of very tiny spots, they will be covered by the puck ..... heeeck!

Heat gun and 6 lb. test fishing line, and it doesn't hurt the paint.

I have not seen Ever-clear in years. They stopped selling it in Virginia. That would be a waste of good booze using it to remove a frame puck. It is better used for removing girl's clothing.

lighter fluid and a sharpened wooden paint mixing stick should work without stains/scratches. worked on my snowboard to get off old stomp pad.
