so you can "freshen" them up a little but not all the way. which is why i suggested to do it right remove the tire all together.

With the tires removed the whole wheel can be done. Most places around here charge 10 bucks to r&r tires.-----Original Message----- From: Brian Denning <i_am_cool_fred@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, August 14, 2007 10:57 AM To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tcb] Re: Painting bus rims (Mark Jenkins) if your careful it won't you just have to really know what you're doing. i didn't eat up my rubber seal around my windshield when i brought the front end back down to metal. you just have to be careful and not shoot directly on to the tire. some runoff sand hitting the tire won't hurt it at all. but you won't be able to do the outside edge of the rim (the part that is against the tire) with the tire on. >From: "Eric Woodall" <eric@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Reply-To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [tcb] Re: Painting bus rims (Mark Jenkins) >Date: Tue, 14 Aug 2007 09:47:50 -0500 (CDT) > >No way. >That sand would chew up the rubber like crazy... > > >vw1971 said: > > Everyone, > > > > Can you sand blast the steel rims with the tires still on them?
