Damn you. Damn you to hell. They look so GREAT that I now have another project to tackle. And, yes, stripper is nasty, nasty stuff.

David,
They're obviously a big hit! Awesome.
I know stripping isn't rocket surgery but could tell us what Stripper you used? Masking? Brush? Tires on/off?
Thanks!

Mine are "stripped", that is the way they came. Do not know the manufacturer but the knockoffs say Halibrand.

David,
Thanks for the reply and info.
I have a spare set of Trigos. Before I got the Avons mounted I took the wheels to a guy who does blasting and powder coating and he didn't want to blast them bare! Maybe when things are more settled I do the same. Once again, love the look.
BTW, I'm still putting you on the Mg list.
