Not too shabby, but I got a little bit bored of the Black slips so i decided im going to strip those *****...


so i call up this girl and i said "MASK MY TIRES OFF.. NOW!"



She did a pretty good job



Then i sprayed on some of the aircraft stripper...




waited a few minutes... nasty ****



and how one of the wheels looks fully stripped.




I Still have the two rear wheels to do, i am doing the other front wheel as i type this and i will post pics of them on the car tomorrow... maybe tonight. I'll keep you guys updated when i do the backs and such... I might even go for the polish bling.. or just a polished lip, i dunno yet!

Your Input is encouraged!

<FONT COLOR="red">
Update Day 1: Finished stripping the two front wheels, i ran out of Airstipper and there is no more at the local discount auto. Ill have to get some more tomorrow and start to rear wheels.


Update Day 2: Took some pics... they are on PAGE 2. Im start the rear wheels tonight. My car is on steelies now so i dont have to keep putting wheels on and off.

Didnt mess it up from what i can tell.. or not yet at least. The lug nut holes are a bitch to get to.

 

did u just use aircraft stipper.. any brushes or anything?

 

been telling people to do this with there ugly flat black wheels for years

looks good

 

so you can do this successfully without removing the tires and stems? it didnt eat your rubber did it?

Well.. The tired were masked off, but the stem i guess it just didnt affect it. Im not sure if this goes for all strippers, but just maybe the one i used.

 

Hah I love aircraft stripper..
More pics of the chick?

how can you tell from that pic


looks good, I had some Si wheels that someone painted black then stripped it, but it ate the finish off of them. I ended up just giving them away.
