if u want to repaint it
y dont u just sand it off???
but if u wanted to strip the paint to get it back to the alloy it was b4 it wouldnt look teh same
cos wen teh rims was painted it would most prob have been sanded down
yeah its fine.. i used paint stripper on my rims.. sanding is simply to hard..
i used paint stripper and removed most of the paint but after that sanded it..
realli messy job
i did both on my OEM rims.. i recon sanding down is soo much better!! cuz if u dont strip the paint properly, then you'll get raised surfaces where the paint wasnt stripped perperly... sanding them down avoids this problem... all u basically have to do is sand down the clear coat, and ur good to go.... wouldnt hurt to prime either afta sanding
it took me a day to sand one rim.. whereas 1 day to finish 2 rims using the paint stripper..
personally after both results, the sanded rim looked better but it was to hard sanding all 4 so i preferred using the paint stripper even though there was a slight difference in the end
