    LOL@Question


    Painted rims are still metal right??? Remove the paint and buff them until the shine the way you want them to.

    the only issue you may run into is the primer and coat may not fully come off w/ stripper. at least that's what happened to me.

    i had 5 circuit 8's that i stripped and on 2 the primer and original color wouldn't come off of a part of the lip or spoke. it foiled my attempts at pained spokes and polished lip.

    they are all polished under the paint. i have stripped two set of slips and they were both polished under the paint. just use some aircraft remover and it will take the paint right off. i didnt even have to polish the wheels once the paint was off. it only took me like 8 hours to do all four.
