Any suggestions on how to remove the paint from my headlight bezels? as you can see in the picture the previous owner painted them yellow..
Steel wool with a little lacquer thinner. I've tried ground walnut shell in a sand blaster before, it works well to take away gunk gently.
Paint stripper these days sucks. They took out some ingredient that made it actually work. The steel wool route might work well. 0000 steel wool
Chemical stripper and cover it with plastic. Do not let it dry or you’re doing it all over again. 30 mins and it should come off. Yes, they removed methylene chloride but can be used effectively…slightly different routine.
I've used Easy Off oven cleaner with great success on plastic grills. Used the black garbage bag trick too on then
Stuff worked awesome! Just use the proper protection and you were fine. Too many dum dums got the stuff in their eyes, mouths, asses etc, or held the can too close to their nose, and presto, banned. Now no one can use it. BRILLIANT
Dot 3 brake fluid . I keep the old flushed fluid for emblems and small parts in a 5 gallon bucket. Generally just soap and water clean up after a night in the bucket
I agree. Probably the same idiots that welded or used a torch near brake cleaner, and created Phosgene gas.
Remember, after you get the paint off those you are going to have to polish the crap out of the chrome to make them presentable. Just an FYI
good idea!if I"ll post a picture after I try a couple of the solutions some of the members have suggested and keep you updated
Actually I did this on my grill and it worked ,I may try it here but when I did my grill I wrapped it in a black bag after applying the Easy Off and set it in the sun for a day but it's barely springtime in Wisconsin so very little sun...
