Removing glued tyre from wheel

Removing glued tyre from wheel
So here's the test. I bought myself a bottle of nail polish remover that has excatone as an ingredient. I will start soaking it today and see what happen the next day. So i keep my finger cross that it will debond the super glue. Else the reminader can give my wife to use. Smells nice too. I choose the "Super fast and strong" nail polish remover.

Re: Removing glued tyre from wheel
Hi Bros. The nail polish method is working. As of this morning 80% seperation of the tyre and wheel was achieve with some coaxing required.
The tyre may not be in the best condition when I started the test cos it was soak in water and was wet when I started the process. I tried hot water the previous day. thinking it will soften the glue instead of boiling. After searching the web, I remember seing something like the super glue will change its substance at 140 degree C. So hot water is no go.
Today will buy an extra nail polish to ensure total submersion of the tyre instead of half soak for the rest of the tyre. Conclusion is it works! And it the tyre will smell fresh and nice after.
