OK, This question is in reference to my Prelude project, but if I can get it out of the shop the teener will get more attention.
Last week I pulled off the wheels and had the tires taken off. The clearcoat has chipped and just looked dirty nomatter how it was washed. I used a chemical stripper and now they are just metal. I like the look, but am I just asking for trouble if I don't clearcoat them again?  |
