  • The shield you can clean with anything and then make sure dry. As for solution, enough to submerge your bearings is all you need. Also make sure those are dry and then lubricated again before reinstalling/using.

  • Remove wheels and bearings, and leave frames attached. Link doesn't work here, but to our site where I mention below and you can read the instructions there for those skates. Other models have Aqua Tech molding where you can mold in hot water, but not the Strut. Thanks!

  • You removed the wheels and bearings, but leave the frames attached. Not sure if link will work here, but if going to the strut skate on our IW site, click to ready product description and you'll see a banner on heat molding instructions. Thanks.

  • If putting lube (whether it oil or cream) on the outside of the shield, some may work its way in there, but likely it will only attract dirt and make it stick to the bearinsg. Some bearings have a rubber shield on the inside to where you can drop in there and spin and get benefit, but if a sealed bearing that requires removal of the c-clip to get to the bearings..You'll have to get that off to get in there and clean out and lube again. Thanks for the post!

  • the ball bearing came apart? or some other part?

  • I use the Sonic...

  • I remove the shields, throw my bearings into a jar, fill it with a degreaser (simple gream, acetone, kerosene, gas), close the jar, let it soak and shake every ten minutes for 1 minute. I take them out, let the degreaser evaporate and put some grease in it.

  • if you're heat molding them in the oven, then you need to take off your wheels but leave your frames on.

  • how much cleaner do you use? and my shield is dirty... how can i go about cleaning that?

  • made in china xD
