i have a cover off a rear wheel from a motorcycle ( 88 honda magna)
it is metal, i dont know what kind, or how to tell, but it had a clear coat or laquer finish on it. i cant get it off.
i tried sprays and strippers.
and sanding with 80 grit on a hand sander worked, but because the wheel cover is convex, the sander is not getting it all easily, and if i push any harder, it is going to leave DEEP grooves.
if y'all cant help, i am thinking my only option is chroming it ( because it looks so bad right now) it is smooth, just very blotchy. 75% of the coating is off, i just dont what to do about the rest of it.
maybe i should just keep trying to hand sand it?
there has to be a product.
i will either post a pic later tonight
thanks
