Paint stripper for powercoating

[HeadUp240]

I have some advan oni's that are powdercoated black. I've never really been a fan of black wheels but will paint stripper remove powdercoating just like it does paint? also they are two piece wheels and the bolts are painted black too and that just seems way to hard to get the paint of every one of those bolts. Does anyone know where i can find replacement ones?

i've never tried regular paint stripper on powder coat, so i cant tell you if it works or not.

But I have tried Eastwood's Power coat dissolver and it definitely works great. http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump...ODUCT

and where can i get this? any body know if i can find those bolts? will aircraft stripper get the paint of those little things? I guess ill just strip them down to the original color and re-clear them.

auto parts stores usually care it, if not go to your home supply store.

I don't know if my results are atypical or what, but aircraft stripper has done a crappy job thus far removing the powdercoating from my valve cover. Initially it took some off with the engine enamel that was sprayed on top of it that I stripped off, but the remaining powdercoat doesn't want to really come off. The stripper softens it a bit where you can kinda shave a layer off the top, but not completely strip it to the bare surface like it's done when I stripped my whole body to bare metal.

I've heard brake cleaner works fairly well for powdercoating so I'm going to try that next, I'll let you know how it works out.

sand blast it....

quickest way to get to totally down to the metal

Aircraft remover is the only stuff to use, it works better than that JASCO stuff or anything you can buy at home depot. My shop has to order it so I'm not sure you can just pick it up at any store...

Sand blasting is a better idea, assuming you have access to one.
