#73487, "Clear coated Wheels"




          

I have polished and clearcoated rims. The last time i went to the car wash the clearcoat started coming off in big chunks on the front wheels.

Anybody know how to get clear coat off wheels? I have searched but havent found any more info than jus to sand them. I don't really wanna do that cause i don't wanna fuck up the surface beyond the clear coat.

TIA-
Mandi

Wet sand it with a very fine grit.

use magic. or the force, either would be fine.

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.
