Whats the easiest wasy to strip paint off of wheels? The aircraft paint stripper isnt cutting it. (spray on) The wheels were sprayed with automotive paint and clear btw, not rattle can spray paint. thanks.

 

aircraft paint stripper is the strongest stuff i know of that is easily available. sanding might be your best bet if that didn't work.

 

What kind of paint is on it? Spray can, clear coat, base only, or what?

 

try using the paste version of aircraft stripper and not the spray on.....i did my rotas long time ago and it ate it away easy

yeah yeah that is what i assumed he used. if not, get the paste stuff!

 

thanks. i kept trying with the spray on, and its slowly working (with multiple applications though)

another question, would it be safe for me to just sand , primer, sand, then paint over the existing paint?

 

well if you sanded the existing paint wouldn't be there anymore.

i use dad's paint remover purchased @ kmart. very very strong stuffi use it on valve covers, on wheels, anything and eveyrthing. i highly recomed a good supply of latex gloves and a bucket of water. it'll burn through the latex gloves after a few seconds and u don't want that **** on ur hands.

 

i meant just enough so the primer can stick. not sanding it all the way to the metal.
