Looking for a local (N Georgia or metro ATL) shop to strip the chrome from a set of 16" steel wheels.
Semper Fi! |

Try these folks in Austell: Eco Clean
I had them strip some metal parts a few years ago and they did a great job. Check out the "Thermal Fluidized Bed" video link. It is what I image hell looks like. |
| I'm wanting to have the wheels powder coated. Talked to the powder coating shop. They said since I have some pinpricks of rust through the chrome, I need to have the chrome stripped before coating. They said if not, when they bead blast the wheels, it could stake flaking/chipping at the rust points. So, if I decide to go ahead with powder coating, I have to have the chrome stripped first. |

Most chrome shops should have the ability to strip chrome since sometimes there are problems and the process must be redone. If you're going to powdercoat, a light blasting to etch the surface should be all you need provided your chrome is intact. There are several folks out there who does powdercoating and sandblasting. I have my preferred "A-team" for jobs that need to be outstanding although there are sometimes that I use others for the commercial grade work. |

WGT, the person I talked to was Robin at Lithia Powder Coating. I've got little pinpricks of rust on the wheels, so I guess the chrome is no longer intact. Robin is good people...he's literally done tons of my work and has a batch of my Hummer parts that he's doing now. |
