Best way to sand/polish out F4I wheels?
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. https://cbrforum.com/forum/attachmen...t-imag0149-jpg |
