Hey DeSolo welcome to the site. I don't know if this works mate. If you look in the technical posts, there are some tips for cleaning and restoring tuffs.
Cheers

LOL Phil loves Tuffs.
Just pull the guts out of the hubs and clean them best you can. Then put them in the dishwasher on the hottest setting. They should come out pretty clean.
You can't actually remove the hubs without causing dramas. The rivets they use are not redoable yet! Although people are trying. Bolts are the only way to re-install them.
