Don't ask! How to remove paint from tire?

Carb cleaner, brake cleaner etc, should take that off with a quickness. Or, if not, a wire wheel on a grinder and a light touch.
 
I've used brake clean and a scrub brush. Laquer thinner works too. Comes off easy if the paint is from an aerosol can.....spray gun with hardener...a little more difficult.
 
brake clean not so good tried. this is Baer Paint in a can. Might try nail polish remover.
 
red scotch bright pads

or wifes green dish scrubby pads .

along with brake clean and not the California safe crap .
 
Brake fluid!..eats paint like paint remover,and is actually good for the rubber--might have to leave it on awhile to work though..
 
It's latex house paint? I bet a minute with some paint stripper would take it right off, just wash the rubber well with soap afterward to keep it from eating rubber.

But it should also come off with mechanical means - like a wire wheel or a flap wheel.
 
I have one or two tires with some CARC overspray on them. Not much but still noticeable. Was thinking of using hot water thru pressure washing. Driving on and thru sand sounds best but no dunes near me for about 3 hours.
 
it's off! Now I can post them on C/L for this weekend. sure no one has nice 33's local :D. Thanks Guys :waytogo:
