im thinking about using aircraft paint remover to strip the flat black on my slips. will this ruin anything i.e. tires if it gets on them (just got falken azenis) and how will this turn out?

 

use dads easy spray... aircraft remover doesnt cover half as much, and doesnt work half as good. youll need 2 bottles for all 4 wheels (at about 6$ a bottle). using a pressure washer is HIGHLY reccomended. to blast off any extra loose paint, to thurougly clean them, and to make sure that the stripped paint doesnt leave a nasty *** brown residue on the tires (which will last for months, if you dont pressure wash it off before it drys any)......... i wouldnt just strip them though, and i wouldnt paint slips. might as well just get them powdercoated if the color is your issue. and if you wanted to polish them, well, good luck. id take them in to have them media blasted though if you want them to look decent.

 

anyone else?

 

what do you plan on doing with them? just stripping them? the method above, the 2 cans of easy spray and the pressure washer work wonders. ive stripped my wheels at least 4 times now, and this is by far the best method ive found. you will be able to EASILY strip all 4 wheels with out effort, and with out having to sand and scratch the wheels up.
