Removed failing lacquer on LMGT4 lips

[HEADPHONES]

Finally got round to sorting ONE rim today.

1 hour repeatedly applying paint stripper with a brush and wiping wit a kitchen towel to the bottom half.

Then rolled the car forward and another hour on the other half.

Washed and coated with Soft99 Fusso.

Great job but why didn’t you Jack it up and take the wheel off ?.

Good job, my GT4's are going that way after 9 years so didnt do badly! I'll be choosing black chrome this time around!

I thought about that but didn't want the paint stripper to drip down past the lips to the rest of the painted wheel.

Keeping it vertical prevents this.

Well done mate looking a lot better 👍

Unless after every drive you clean dy and protect your wheels you will want to get them re lacquered or they will start to go furry, it doesn't take much moisture to get aluminium to corrode
