Just ride down the street like normal - then use the brakes a few times to work the tyre. Once you have ridden around 1/2 a dozen corners without trying to scrape the pegs and put a bit of heat into the tyres - the release compound will be gone.
This method has worked fine for me for 30+ years, I have never used sandpaper or prepsol or anything else.
tyre buffer Prepsol Sandpaper I think Hoffy's method will achieve a similar result!!

Got the pirelli diablo on the rear and next week front tyre to get done. Thanks for the info all. Flywheels used prepsol before I got on it. Love those guys. Got $120 bucks off all the things they did.
Oh the tyre is awesome.
So got new rubber on the front. Pirelli Angel. Fuck they tip in quick. Hopeful this is a loving relationship. Looking forward to giving it a good test on Sunday.
