gasoline_fiend Jul 9th, 02, 11:04 AM Seems I got some overspray on my tires while repainting the rims. Whats a good way to get the paint off? ------------------ Eric Taylor 72 Malibu 350 (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/ericsvellepic1.jpg) 68 SS396 basket case malibu man Jul 9th, 02, 11:41 AM Well when that happens on the tractors we restore, we use black paint or tire paint. Apply that on the sidewall, might want to mask off around the outside of the rim bead. Then the black paint usually dries off and takes the overspray with it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. ------------------ Trever Maas 1972 Chevelle Malibu Mohave Gold L65 350/M38 TH350 2.73 AXL RATIO Undergoing Resotoration jeffc Jul 9th, 02, 4:04 PM I used paint thinner, but I have this bad feeling that it wasn't too good for my tires. But, they look OK now. DjD Jul 9th, 02, 4:21 PM Only thing I ever use to clean tires and white letters and white walls is an SOS Pad. Dip the pad in water and have at the tire!! Dad use them in the '50's and '60's and I've done so since the '70's... ------------------ ...Dennis The '69 (http://chevelles.com/showroom/ww.jpg) & the '96 (http://www.camaroslimited.com/graphics/memcars/96ss.jpg) Team Camaro (http://www.camaros.net) Camaros Limited (http://www.camaroslimited.com) | ||
