Does grease kill a rim brake pad?
If you get grease on a rim brake pad is it ruined? I just heard that it is, that nothing can save it. I never knew that. I'd think you could just wipe it off and wash it then use it a bit and it would come around. I assume that I've gotten WD40 and other lubes on my pads before. Hmmm... never knew grease could kill a pad. ??
