Currently car is in stealth mode.Thinking of maybe going with a different look. Maybe so, maybe not. If I were to want to take off the black paint on the intercooler, how should I do so?

off topic but what kind of paint to use if i wanna paint my intercooler ?

gosu08

ok thanks. i was thinking of using air craft stripper but wasnt sure if i would harm anything.

im assuming using a pressure washer but spray vertically along the fins instead of horizontally so i dont bend the fins?

please use gloves with the aircraft paint stripper

gosu08

will do! that stuff is really harsh. i used it once to get the clear coat off my wheels when i was polishing them

lol, my intercooler is too cheap to get that kind of coating, can i just use the engine high temp spray can from autozone?

MAFDARK

no, you want the opposite. High temp paint is often ceramic based and therefore insulating which would prevent the IC from doing its job.

any spraypaint will do,it wont damage or keep the heat in,i strippied my mishi i/c and sprayed it with pswrd:jdm just coz i dint like the orange
