Ok guys so I have some AP2 V2 wheels and well previous owner got them painted black. What i wanted to know is, what can I use in order to take off the ugly black paint and that will not damage the wheel or its original color/clear coat. I dont want to repaint them I just want their stock silver color with the polish face and well i wouldnt want to damage them. What have you guys used or what can i use so i wont get them damaged. Any help would really be appreciated. THANKS!!!

 

Hello. I did this to my ap1 wheels. They just had cheap spray paint and I actually just wiped them down good with Acetone and then used an ice scraper and it chipped the paint off pretty easy. If yours are professionally painted this will probably not work. But they came out with the machine surface and everything perfect!

 

Hey I found the thread with the pic results of mine. Enjoy!

Thanks!! actually yea my wheels are pretty ghetto painted so I think this should work... one last thing where did you get the Acetone??

 

No problem man. I found the Acetone at Wal-Mart with all the paint stuff. I used 1 ice scraper per wheel b/c the plastic starts getting rounded after each wheel. they were only like $1 each though at wal-mart also.

 

koo.. thanks... ill start on this monday so i can go to the shop to get the tires off the wheels... thanks again!!!
