    bits of friction plate stuck to flywheel, how to remove them

    I bought a OS Giken single plate clutch with a cracked friction plate but there are deposits of the friction plate attached to the flywheel and other plate surfaces.

    Whats the best way to clean it up and remove these bits of friction plate without going through the effort of getting both surfaces skimmed? It isnt much at all so just want both surfaces nice and smooth ready for the new friction plate

    Thanks Lewis

    I think you ll struggle to get the fly wheel skimmed due to the design of the fly wheel. I know I couldn't get mine done :-(

    I doubt any would be aggressive enough to make it a worry
