Plastidip removal from wheels, the easy way!

Boosted12a · 08-08-2019, 09:42 PM

I'm sure there are tons of threads about this. When I searched everyone was saying wd40. Tried it, didn't work great but worked. I had some spray silicone so I trued that. The sicone prettymuch melts the dip and dosent hurt the paint. I peeled off what I could and sprayed what I couldn't, let it sit for about a min. The stuff almost completely wiped off first try. Hope this helps!

I used a 4K pressure cleaner on a friends oem wheels, 1-2 minutes a wheel.

While these are both good ideas, (I'd prefer to pressure washer method) the best way to remove plasti-dip is to just do 3-4 thick coats when you initially spray them. The plasti-dip will come off WAY easier and in some cases all as one peice.
