Ollieh17 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Bought some alloys cheap and the paint on them is awful... Like real awful. Mate of mine offered to sandblast them, took 2hours to do one and gave up on the others. He suggested using some form of SUPER paint stripper instead. Anyone know of anything? Nitromorse doesn't cut it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JamesD89 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 My local Refurb specialist uses paint stipper and a drill with a wire brush fitting does take time though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 It looks like some spaz has painted it with a paint brush. Paint in places just chips off Quote Link to post Share on other sites

monssie477 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Try roughing up the paint first with sand paper then nitromors and then sand blast . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Get them chemically dipped and stripped. There's a firm down the road from me that does a set of 4 for £20 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
