Default Aircraft Remover on Rays Gram Lights??

What will happen if the product is applied to these wheels?

Obviously I know the paint will come off, but has anyone done this before?

Mine def. need a re-fresh, and would like to take all the old stuff off first.

If its any help these are the wheels...

i would ONLY use stripper if the wheels have massive chips in them. if they are just peeling or surface scratches just sand, filler primer and paint.

you only want to use aircraft stripper if the paint is extrmely damaged, multi layered, or powder coated.

Gramlights do not come with the sticker on them.

Man Utd are ****. End of story.

Paint stripper is paint stripper. The stronger the better definetly use the aircraft stripper its the strongest. Dont buy some shitty kind that takes forever.

I know how to use paint stripper and what to buy etc. I am just curious as to what is beneath the top layer of paint.

Some wheels I have done have had a layer of enamel of or something which was impossible to get off. I am just not sure whether I apply it if it will go to the bare aluminium.

i would only use it if you wanna strip the entire wheel... ALSO you can call VOLK and order new stickers...a friend of mine did it...they just ask for the serial number on the back side of the wheels for proof that they are TRUE GRAM LIGHTS
