You cannot rub off paint from brushed aluminum wheels. In order to remove said paint, you will have to use a chemical solvent.

How can I get old paint off aluminum windows?

Jasco - it's a chemical used to remove paint. You could use a heat gun, but the aluminum will take a lot of heat before the paint starts to peel off.

How to remove paint from motorcycle wheels?

I would take it to a shop were they do powder coating..and have them "burn" it off in a oven.... That is a ridiculous answer. You do not burn paint off. If you do take it to a place where powder coating is perfomed they will use glass or sand beads to "sandblast" off the paint. To remove paint yourself: use a paint brush and apply lots of paint remover to the wheel. Let paint remover sit on wheel for 20-30 minutes. then scrape off the mess with a plastic scraper, wire brush, and finally a rag. Repeat this process as long as it takes to get all paint off.


What do you use to get paint off of aluminum?

Use a methylene-chloride solvent paint remover. Aluminum is resistant to solvents, but will be damaged by acid paint removers. Abrasion isn't a good option, either, because aluminum is relatively soft and will scratch easily with sanding or steel scraping tools. I have an '04 Ford Expedition & the door siding is aluminum. All the paint has bubbled and peeled off exposing rust. Maaco and Ford wanted $500 to install new trim on three of the affected doors. My husband tried traditional sanding and spray paint & it peeled off in no time. I did research and found PEEL AWAY 7. Awesome! I put it on yesterday and left it overnight. I took it off this morning. The paint came off in a strip with NO problem. I then cleaned the area with denatured alcohol and sanded with two grades of steel wool, cleaned again with denatured alcohol and have a smooth, clean surface ready to paint. I am a perfectionist and don't care for "it's good enough". This product (peel away 7) met my standards, and actually exceeded them, which is rare. lol!
