How to clean your skateboard / longboard bearings - Simple tutorial.

[mgllah]

i don't get the term can't afford new bearings. There 10 dollars for christ sake

[DaRealZon3]

So why does it say it helps wheels(bearings)on the can of wd-40

[marijuanton420]

wtf is going on in the background

[enjoiskater12222]

do not do this

[jake33335]

Is it just me or do I hear ppl having sex in the backround?

[TheEpicNeonCookie]

wd-40 WILL ruin your bearings, it eats grease, NOT FOR BARINGS, clearing this up for some

[MrDeonate]

THANKS SOOOO MUCH , i thought i had to buy NEW ONES!

[28fireball]

are you on the side of the road or what?

[Thegurro]

thanks , it helped :) <3

[Shadowseeker219z]

Dude White spirit works a treat :D still if you don't want the gritty sound when you spin them, pop the casing off and give them a soak!

[TheScanner1234]

This slowed down my bearings and destroyed them

do not do this i repeat do not do this

[badger2269]

@TheScanner1234 Did you use superglue instead of oil?

[oldman32123]

@TheScanner1234 you obviously did it wrong.

[MrAdikul]

hey can i use wd-40 with bones reds?

pls ans

[badger2269]

@MrAdikul WD-40 is quite a thin spray of oil.. it's not the best for this.. Your better off using a machine oil. They normally come in a little tin with a nozzle to squirt it out.

[MrAdikul]

@badger2269 ok thank you for helping me but i still have a doubt that wd-40 should work right?

[FreshAsphalt]

@MrAdikul DO. NOT. USE. WD-40 WHEN LONGBOARDING/SKATEBOARDING. EVER.

[TeoZMuff313]

@FreshAsphalt WD-40 wont fuck them up or anything, its just too thin and will leak out after a while

[Serostern]

@MrAdikul Nope. Use a heavier oil. Sewing oil will work splendidly, motor oil will work aswell.

Stay away from chainsaw oil, that is too sticky, and avoid cooking oil since it goes rancid.

[Bugstomper2]

@MrAdikul WD-40 eats urethane wheels slowly. At first it seems great, but after about a week, it's worse than before.

[msybee]

can i also use 70 % achohol?

[SaotaTheSangheili]

wait, so each wheel has two bearings?

[DarkStar23961]

@SaotaTheSangheili and you know that now



[AlexWguiT]

can we use like some differents kinds of oil ?

[MrOmzees]

white spirit? what is that like Native tears

[joshygasston]

wats white spirit?

[toguli7818]

can you use clr instead of white spirit?

[badger2269]

@toguli7818 Not sure tbh, basically anything that breaks down dirt and grease.. stuff that cleans paintbrushes etc..

[toguli7818]

@badger2269

yeah i have old berrings with some rust

clr will get rid of everitning other than the berrings :P

[Musicispassion909]

what are you dipping it in?

[badger2269]

@Musicispassion909 White Spirit.. You sometimes use it to clean paintbrushes etc...

[Musicispassion909]
