lets just "hypothetically" say that i found a set of pm wheels real cheap. but they are powder coated 2 different colors. how easy is it to remove the powder coating without screwing up the wheels. would i have to re-polish them.

you'll be bead blasting the coating off from them. and yes, re polishing as well.
There isn't a clean and easy to remove it

Don't blast 'em.
Send them to the powdercoater, and they can 'cook' the powdercoat off. It would be easier, IMHO to re-polish.

its going to be costly, i use 'gasket remover' its some nasty shit though, removes powder coat pretty damn well... but u need a bio-hazard suit to use it! IT burns when it hits your skin!

i have used aircraft stripper before to strip powder coating. but it is also some really nasty stuff to work with. but it will eat it right off.
