    I am in the process of painting my extra set of TRD Offroad wheels. Anyway, the paint ran really bad, and I used paint thinner to wipe it up :(, now I cannot get the paint to stick in that area. I have used Dawn, grease and wax remover, and sanding, but it just cracks up, what can I do? I am ready to just go get them powder coated, but dont know if it will stick with the Paint Thinner problem

    Help is appreciated

    Thanks

    Yes! This should remove any residue left by the paint thinner.

    Thanks guys, I'll Sand them down and spray with brake cleaner, then get them blasted and powder coated.
