Been trying to search the forum to see what the best route is to strip and sand the wheels down to a mirror finish and was wondering if anybody has a tutorial with pictures or from another forum? How much time should it take to just do the wheel lips? Thanks!

 

The wheel lips are essentially pre-shined. Just use some Kleen Strip around the edges and it should come off with a garden hose.

Past the lip, where the texture roughs up, the paint adheres much more strongly. I think you'll need some sort of wire wheel or something to get all the paint out, or else a ton of sandpaper and patience. Multiple coats of paint stripper didn't take everything off.

Here's a pic I took this week when I was stripping my wheels. The really bubbly part is the easy part.

 

might do this to my spare wheel set

 

why not get them sand blasted?

 

Try Aircraft Remover.

 

Thanks does anybody know where a tutorial is on stripping and polishing out wheels.

Anybody have a tutorial with pics?

 

You need a picture tutorial for taking sandpaper to your wheels?

1) Spray with aircraft remover
2) Let Sit
3) Pressure Wash to blast away loose paint
Repeat steps 1-3 as needed to remove all paint.
