Dissolving Slime

[PeteXXX]

Not so much the pro & cons of using Slime (though my problem would not exist if I didn't use it!)

Is it possible to dissolve Slime that has gummed up my track pump?

Screw fix no nonsense degreaser. 5l for £8.99.

I should be on commission. It's ace stuff. General great none nasty chemical cleaner. Bikes, car, bathroom, windows, kitchen.. etc etc. Dilute massively.

Wash under running water.
Failing that, insert the end in a bowl of water.

Do not pour down an inside drain.

It it water soluble?

I've used water to clear innertubes of it.

I'll give it a go tomorrow, cheers. Cheaper than buying a new pump!

When I said I've cleaned innertubes with water. Think Mickles innertube museum, in the main, but I've also done it before fixing my own.
