Default PowderCoat Removal

Ok guys, I have a set of Rota Slipstreams in black.

I cannot seem to find anyone to trade me for a polsihed set.


Is it possible to removal the powder coat(I' assuming) from the wheels and then polish them.

If it is possible, Let me know what chemicals to use.

Thx

if its powdercoat, have fun. you can sandblast it, but by the time you do that you will probably ruin the wheels. the sand will dig into the aluminum. i would sell the wheels and buy new ones.
