Well, after three and a half hours, and about one can of Easy Off...I gotta say, I didn't expect it to work as good as it did!
Looks good 1ton-o-fun! Glad the Easy Off worked out. I’ll be painting mine soon as well. Got new tires too.Well, after three and a half hours, and about one can of Easy Off (about $8), here's the result.
All I did was spray the wheel off with a hose! No scrubbing! If I would have had some coarse steel wool on hand, I probably wouldn't have needed a final application.
I gotta say, I didn't expect it to work as good as it did! I finished off the can by applying it to what's left of the paint you see.
I figure it will take another can to do the backside of the wheel too.
All told, I should end up with four bare steel wheels for less than $100.
Primer, white paint, and clear? That's another story. I still believe I will come out ahead. One of the shops I called said $85 each wheel to sandblast, prime, and paint.
-So that's my goal to beat! Get these done for less than $340
I don't have paint OR tires at the moment... I have a dry place to put them. I can also WD40 them and bag each one until I get my $#!+ together for the painting phase.
I think I'll see what I want to do about the little bit of rust you see on them before that happens.
