JRX2 rims and ACETONE.....what colour melts?

[Bormac]

I have some Losi 2.0" spoked rims from the JRX2 which I want to use. So far I have stripped glued tyres from the red version rims with no problems but from memory was it the orange or the yellow that melt in acetone?

Orange for sure. The early ones iirc, the ones that are more plastic.

That's correct. All wheels are safe in acetone except the light orange (early wheels). The later orange was darker.

Yeah...DO NOT put the light orange wheels in acetone. I learned that one the hard way a couple weeks ago...completely cooked a set of original wheels from my old car. I had some darker orange wheels in the same tub and they were fine...just the light orange ones melted.
