Drove through five different countries today, just to bring these home.
Before I send these for a refurb, I want to remove the current paint from the wheels. Someone was super happy with paint and made the wheels look awful. I need to recover all original stamps that were covered with paint, without using any hardware. Anyone knows what chemical I could use for this?

AMMO NYC's Larry has a video on YouTube of the paint being stripped from his Porsche during a repaint job. There may be a product name in that video. I can't recall.

Here's a link to the video:


There also seems to be a huge number of wheel-refinishing videos online.

Good luck!
