Mecanum Cleaning?

Hello everyone,
We have had some issues with the rollers in our vexpro mecanum wheels getting dirty, but we have not found any instructions or guides for cleaning them. Does anyone know how to clean them?

We have the 6 inch model, bought directly from vex

Re: Mecanum Cleaning?

I have heard of people using rubbing alcohol to clean their Colsons and AM rubber wheels. I am sure it would work on the rubber rollers as well.

Isopropyl alcohol is magic for cleaning robots.
