Registered User Posts: 38 12/11/11 6:30 PM	Does anyone have a recommendation for gluing soles back on? I have a pair of cool grey ix's and the soles are starting to peel off. Any suggestions for a specific kind of glue?

Im concerned that it is too hot. They are 100w bulbs and I have the set up in a box wrapped with aluminum foil. once I turn them on, the air surrounding turns warm/too warm. is that going to be problematic? heres my set up

And do they have to be UVA to be more affective? Just wanting to make sure before I go and buy something too weak or too strong. I am not waiting until summer to clean up some of my jordans -sirpepperoni Oh alright thanks bro. Will give them a try then. Was cleaning the soles of them with water and the 3M seemed to not be affected by the water, but it would absorb it.

Quiet NikeTalker since 2001 I buy and wear what I like and let you do the same Most people keep their kicks DS because they can't afford to rock them

Reason being is it generates a LOT LESS heat compared to the actual heat lamp. Here's what my setup looks like, but I might be doing some sort of an adjustment and do a box setup like what most people are doing. *References*: andfattoo; Mac4167;tvanterpool;bklyn style baby; jae how; rudimus; mazzo1, ryansam23, hottkicks, bighit101, AlexWAP, bigmo1002, footballer11, RL Treyce, illparadox, liljkidd5, chigaa, nikeairon, bigballa8716, 23king24, kobe4ever8, ssharks, donttalkitlivit, bronx, Liu Kang 23, Ace33Bone, 1825vine, d1ner0, TwoGlockNines, takeahit, MVPlikekobe24, ivace12, reefdalegend, ajhix, ijapino, Murkn3m, slicknick951, losnal, etc (many have paid as "gift" via paypal)

Registered User Posts: 19 12/18/11 2:21 PM	I have a problem with my Jordan XXIII All Stars, I don't wear them that much and last night when I took them out of the box to wear I noticed the jumpman and 23 logo on the tongue has turned yellow. I tried to capture it in a picture. Any ideas on how to restore it back to clear. Thanks for your help.

Registered Member Posts: 165 12/18/11 5:45 PM	@accordhybrid: Go to Youtube and type in " How To Make Retr0brite " or go to this link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ogLW6zYgv8 Since the plastic on your 23's looks to be the same material on the pull tab of the III's, you can use the formula made above to whiten the yellowed pull tab on the tongue. The ingredients to make retr0brite are inexpensive altogether but the only thing you need to constantly buy is Hydrogen Peroxide 3%. I'd buy 2 big bottles (which are $0.89 ea. at Walmart) if you plan to restore a lot of shoes. @optimusp517: Thanks bro! I've actually seen your videos repeatedly. I'm just going to toss the indoor method and stay with the eco-friendly sun. Last Edited By: johnandrew07 12/18/11 5:48 PM. Edited 1 time.
