Wheels Stripped

One of the perks of working for a large automotive chemistry supplier is that you can occasionally slip a personal job into the testing lab. Henkel’s been hard at work on a new paint stripper designed specifically for stripping aluminum wheels, and I just had to “help” out. I dragged my new Rials into work to try out the new chemistry and the results are fantastic! Next up is straightening, then polishing and paint. Check out a side-by-side and a closeup of the original order marks on one of the stripped barrels after the jump.
