WIMPUS Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hi, Friend of mine has some Dolly Sprint alloys that he wants to refurb. Now how to get the clear coat off etc ? I'm thinking of using paint stripper.polishing up the edge is no problem, painting and new clear coat will be done semi-professional Also, would this be semi-gloss or high ? (the black parts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Hammond Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Paint stripper or a mild media blasting should help. For a more natural lock, I'd go semi-gloss black, I cannot recall what the original was but it was probably a full on gloss.Cheers,Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPearce Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I thought they were originally semi-gloss.The process used by the place that refurbished my GT6's cosmics was: - Media blast to remove all old paint and corrosion - Paint / coat all over in black - Mount on a lathe and diamond cut the highlights - Apply lacquer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Quoted from RobPearce ... The process used by the place that refurbished my GT6's cosmics was ... The place I used to refurbish my Revolutions used the same process.They only had to polish the rims, but they also straightened the wheels ...
