I was surprised the graphic stayed. I thought it was a waterslide decal and would peel but it looks to be lazered, maybe?
The process was fairly simple. Taped up the axle to ensure that was untouched. Soak in oven cleaner for 30mins. Rinse throughly and scrub with a toothbrush in water. Scotchbrite pad for 10mins to remove colouration and create a bite. 30mins to polish the cranks with autosol, microfibre and an old toothbrush for the nooks. Done.
The chainring definitely needs a second go but I’m not too worried. Quite chuffed overall.
