that looks so clean

 

is 400 grid sandpaper the best to use then? and thanks guys for all the tips.

 

is there any pics of mesh integra wheels painted and on a car??
like so??

 

also, what color did you use ebelp?

 

Hey , dude , do you mind if I use that procedure on "my" website ???(www.TorontoIntegras.com)
I'm planning on adding a "how-to" section, and I know people would be interested.

 

jus wondering, how hard is it to remove the orignal coat of clear coat and paint?? Do i need anything else besides the 400 grit?? thanks

Will-

 

use the aircraft stripper and the paint/clearcoat should dissolve to the point where you can spray it off with water. Follow the directions on the can.

go ahead and use the how-to, just give proper credit

black clear or amber

 

I like clear and amber lenses too, in this case I think his car would look very stealthy/clean/nice/etc with smoked lenses, due to the fact that its black and it would match the car with dark wheels & tint.

 

i just thought u ment like pure black

 

how much is aircraft strippers??

Will-

 

well the last time i saw strippers on board an aircraft they were charging $10/dance

itd be pretty sweet also not to have to clean your wheels every other day, i really dont understand white wheels

i think im gonna do it to my 14" demon's

seriously tho where could you get aircraft stripper?

 

wal mart/disount auto/pep boys......$4.00 a can.

 

aircraft strippers are in a can?

 

Does anyone know how bare metal looks like on powder coated rims?
I have Rota Formels and the spokes are powdercoated silver.
I like to take them off and give it the polished metal look.

 

yep, comes in a blue can at AutoZone, has a pic of an airplane on it, imagine that

 

and then u paint it with what? the paintcan that comes from autozone also for 4 bucks a can?
