Goof-Off.. at pep boys/advance auto/walmart

 

Aircraft removal or Laquer. only things you can use besides wet-sanding. I think wet-sanding is your best bet but use the aircraft remover 1st and then start wet-sanding with 4,000 grid. if that doesn't work go 2,000 or just take the wheels to Amercian Stripping (Not a club) and they can do everything all at once.

 

Brake clean. It's going to be the cheapest and do I good job. Get 5 cans @.89 cents a can, and a a semi hard pad to rub it off with.

 

Also brake fluid is good. I hear it takes paint off of anything.

 

believe or not i used my moms nail polish remover to get white paint off my moldings and it worked...used it a lil bit on my rims and it came off but i dont know about the whole rim, i used it on half of it

 

aircraft stripper/remover. That eats through any paint. I tried spraying some wheels black for the hell of it before taking them in for powder coat then put that shit on and used a plastic blade and just scraped it right off clean.
