Getting the Wheeling Fever
Does anyone know of a good way to remove the clearcoat from a set of aluminum wheels? Bead blaster? Some sort of stripper? i have a set i'd like to use but a couple are looking really rough. Thanks

Or what you suggested or a good paint stripper.

Nasty, nasty, nasty stuff that burns like no other if you get it on you, but man does it work.
