what can i use 2 clean longboard/skateboard bearings besides acetone?
i have reds on my board and i just put them in gasoline and leave them there for like 20 minutes after that i spin them around a bunch to get the dirt out. i have never lubed them and they work great but it's all up to you. try different things and see what works best.
Do not use any of that stuff like wd-40. Buy some bones bearings cleaning unit. All the other stuff will make your beaings worse.
get rubbing alcohol with the highest concetration of alcohol possible- 91% put it in a bowl and submerge the bearings in it and spin them to get all the dirt out once clean, take them out and let dry quickly note that you will need some sort of lube, you do not want to do this without lube or it will kill your bearings. anyways after they dry put the lube on directly or over the plastic shields and then you should be all set.
