Have a a couple sets of wheels I would like to powder coat. Best method the remove the old powder coat? Removing from Factory Fuchs and a set of Panosports for what it’s worth.
Bead blast? Chemical? Pretty sure sand blast would be out, any one with any experience with this?

Thank you.

The cleanest way that I’ve used to remove PC is to drop the part in boiling water. Then use a plastic scraper to remove it while hot. I wear a pair of thick chemical gloves,
I wouldn’t blast Fuchs. Especially not with sand.
Good chemical stripper works but be prepared for a mess.
