does anyone know exactly how to strip the black powder coating or paint off of stock m2 wheels and how to polish the aluminum underneath? | ||

you could try an automotive grade stripper but I think you'll be sanding it off, I had to on my tripple clamps , then just finer grades of wet rub , then finish with a buffing wheel. Good luck , lots of work. | ||

i dont want to put that much elbow grease into it. ive seen pics on here of guys wheels who have had this done. if you are one of those guys please let me know how it was done so i can tell the guys at the shop what i need done. | ||

I stripped mine with paint remover. The thick gooey kind. Leave it on til the paint is soft and loosen it with a wooden stick, you'll find the aluminum is bright underneath. Do not use sandpaper! I had to re-apply the paint remover many times to get it to soften the coating. I think the coating is paint because if it was powder coat, paint remover wouldn't work. |
