Well you see on the civic eg hatches they have door moudlings and i decided i wanted to paint them... so i did paint them... but now i look at my car and i think i liked it better without painting the door moulding rubber strip things...
so basically i was wondering if you know of anything that will remove the clear coat, paint, and primer....

thanks

May I ask what you did? like, you painted them to match your car colour? Because I'm thinking of either doing that or just repainting them black because the plastic is fading. ta

Couldnt you possibly remove them and swap them with someone who has stockies and wants them painted?

yea i was colour coding them but then i decided that i would get a proper painter to do it and the painter said i had to get it off or it would cost alot more if he had to strip it himself...

Go to ur sisters room or ur mums room and get a bottle of nail polish. 100% it will disolve the paint.

trying going the the wreckers and buying so stock ones if you don't like the colour. If not goto somewhere like supercheap and find your colour code and get a can. Its about $7 for the small or $13 for a large can.

Just sand down slightly your current colour and spray. do at least 2 coats to make sure it stays the same colour
