Or you can sandblast at most powdercoating shops but way pricier than aircraft cleaner remover.

Yeah.. the wheels where white, than painted over with silver. So the Aircraft Remover isn't working that great, although it does work just takes forever.

When I had mine redone, they had to strip because sandblasting off existing powder was taking a long time.
So they stripped and then sandblasted afterward to remove the stripping chemicals and make it better for sticking again.

Why are you stripping them? Do you intend to powder coat them? Do you want a bare metal wheel?

If you intent to have them refinished why not just have the person doing the refinishing strip them for you. They have the tools and equipment to do it right the first time.

I wanna get them painted gold. Like this:



Oh P.S went to Autozone got some Rustoleum Aircraft Remover in a gallon and damn it came off quick.
