This time I got it wrong though. Had a blonde moment. 200c for 20mins for some reason, instead of 150c and 10mins Just glad the smoke alarm didn't go off in the works mess room :woot:. Two extractor fans on, door open, window open etc

Looks like the tyres & inserts are OK though

from 2th my 12th days we used to put insulation tape on the rims then use evostick to glue the tiers works a treat!!!!! Also tried a smialar method on buggies a thin strip of tape where tire wall sits flush on the actual rim, them evo stick. To remove boil in a pan, use tonges to remove out of water,and use a tea towel to hold HOT tire and simply remove tire....................

Found some acetone at work and tried it. It melts the super glue a treat as you say.
Had I known about acetone earlier I wouldn't have sought other methods.
Will probably switch over to super glue when I run out of hot glue sticks.
