LOGIE Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I think you have done well to last 4 years without the laquer peeling off before now. Personally id leave it till its getting bad however if it bothers you that much give Ibrar at speedwell (trader on here) a pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaky Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 If you are short on cash the best way is just to flat it off and clear coat it your self,your lucky it's on the top part of the lip leave it and it will spread further down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L18msy Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 My mate did my wheels for me on the car. He jacked up the rear of the car, started it,and put it in gear and took the lacquer off with different grades of wet and dry paper with his hands while the wheels were spinning! Once the rears where done he put the fronts onto the rear and repeated the process. I wouldn't recommend doing that though, i couldn't watch! He just laughed and carried on with a fag hanging out his gob. I now just keep on top of them by using autosol if they get shabby looking or just wax them if they are dirty.
