ive got a problem with my arches

when they were rolled previously and sorted etc, the geezer filled one side, but left the other side just follded and never fillered, how can i clear out the upturn lip before i seal it with mastic or filler etc?

i wana make sure i get as much out as poss, theres some underseal, some mud and some other random sh!t there, cant fit a pressure washer in or anything - do i just scrape it?

one easy way is to remove the wheel and get a compresser and just give it a blast with some air to clear out all the debris youve got lodged in there. before that just get a small stiff brush and give it a good brushing.

as ben says - or, depending on how wide the fold is, get a metal implement or sprts (them things horsey people use to crape the sh1te out of horses feet are good) and drag it along the channel.

Basically a sturdy bit of bent metal with the end ground down eniff to get in the gap. Then, blast with air (wear goggles), brush and seal.

THEN - go back to garage and kick the ass of the guy that did it!

Do as ADE say's, but go kick the ass first! or they'll say 'what you talking about mate, there's nothing wrong with them arches'. Yeah, not anymore!
