Re: Painting Rims
Chances are you'll be best off starting with an old towel, and wiping the tires as clean as you can to remove most of the oil. Bleche-wite should do the trick as well as dawn after most of it is wiped off. Paint thinner is another one to consider, though I don't think I'd use it on the tires, only the wheels.Last edited by TheGr8Schlotzky; 06-10-2008, 05:17 PM.

Re: Painting Rims
if any of that stuff got on the wheels you need to scrub the crap out of them. pretty much all tire shine products are silicone based, paint sticks to it just as well as the tape does ;)
id get some of that purple power degreaser and spray it on straight, use a good scrub brush, and make sure to wear gloves. then clean the wheels with diluted purple power degreaser and comet or ajax with a scotch brite pad and some elbow grease. that should clean em enough to where you dont have to worry about delamination issues.foggy headlights? wetsand... buff... WAX!!!
if nissan motorsports is nismo does that mean honda motorsports is homo?
