My man you are a lifesaver! I plasti dipped my wheels and the coating was too thin so it was a pain to takeoff! I was on my way to a detailing shop and they ask for $150 to take them off and then I found out about your video. I sprayed rubbing alcohol on my wheels the night before and I woke up the next day took them all off in one hour! THANSK DUDE!
That plasti dip is done right. Mine is so thin that it wont peal as a whole and im getting kind of irritated.
LMFAOO
Have you tried spraying more coats on it? That might give you a thick enough layer to peel then. I’m the same, sucks
Yea this would never work on mine
Mine also 😢
Ensure you thoroughly clean them.
Thanks for this video. I've been debating plasti-dipping the rim's on my 4runner. Was worried about removal.. this changed my mind. Going to pick up my brake pads right now, gonna snag a couple bottles of plastidip, while I'm there! Thanks man!🤘😎
Faster way, spray oven cleaner on it, let sit for a minute or two, it will start to bubble up. Next blast it with pressure washer and it all comes off in seconds. Not all oven cleaner is created equal, that natural lemon or orange crap won't work. I used Walmart house brand oven cleaner, like 2.78 a can which was enough for four wheels. This will also remove non clear coated rattle can paint jobs, like all those rims that people flat black rattle can painted before Plasti Dip became popular. It will not permanently damage factory clear coat but may make it soft for a while so do not use anything hard to scrape off paint, if there are any stubborn spots, use a nylon bristle brush. If you don't have a pressure washer, go use one of those pay and spray car washes.
Is oven cleaner safe on tire??
Great tips! You made a daunting task look easy!
I'm glad I saw this video. I spent an hour today peeling one wheel that has 4 coats of dip and it's still not totally done.
I spent 2 on all 4 just to find this
I didn’t have rubbing alcohol so I tried peroxide works great
Goo gone works amazing too!!!! Let it sit for about 15 minutes and it’s come right off with a pressure washer
@@zipzay2037 about to try this let’s see how it goes !
@@coochiebeans how'd it work for you?
@@coochiebeans update
Thank you so much for the vid i bought some after market wheels that were plasti dipped and it looked terrible so I was trying to remove by peeling with a credit card but this helped so much thank you!!
That means the pasty dip was put on right
what about the plasti dip inside the rim behind, like the overspray that gets on it. you just leave it alone then?
SWEET!!!! Saw your post on Tavarish's channel and decided to check you out. I'm going to Sub! Keep up the good work!!'
Anyone else shit themselves at 2:30? 😂
Alcohol doesn't work for me. I used goof-off as a solvent, works better but I still cannot get it completely clean on the inner edges between the "spokes". I used a pressure washer and it started peeling the rim's coating. Any suggestions?
wow, worked very fast, had only about 1/2 ounce of alcohol. going to buy a quart now. thx. original wheels are beautiful.
Thank you Samcrac. I've been watching lots of videos, trying to find the easiest way to remove the plast dip from my wheels. Tomorrow is going to be a nice day outside so I will finally give it a try. 😊
2yrs later.... How well did it work?
@@Wizdomisgold5622 more years later what was your experience ?
It's easy to remove because who ever applied it did it correctly with enough thickness, not because of the rubbing alcohol. Rubbing alcohol also isn't the "main ingredient" that plastidip uses, it's naphtha.
So does that mean if its applied thinly, naphtha works better?
Thanks for this. I have an entire car to get dip off of.
Auto Auction Rebuilds sheesh
Bro my friend did that to his 328i and when his dad found out...... game over lmao
It's not even that big a deal. It peels off like a skin. Probably took an hour and a half to get it off the car. It protects the paint, you can change the color of your car, cheap to go and fun af. It's amazing stuff.
You look like Sammy from blue mountain state hahah great video!!
Nice thanks, I'm actually thinking about applying plastidip to my new car wheels to make them all black and wanted to know how easy it would be to change my mind later on.
If it's too thin to get to peel, why not clean the thin layer spotless so you can apply more coats to stick properly? Then try a heat gun or propane torch (keep it moving), to get it to start peeling.
I'm trying to figure out how to get HF bedliner off of a Lexus wheel w/o trashing the finish. Any ideas? Next is getting it off the garage floor and wall. Yep, the wife ran over a brand new gallon of the goo and popped it. I'm still trying to figure out how she got the can and didn't drive through the wall. Hellfire!
If you really want to remove plastidip really fast use the autozone brand brake cleaner, just spray then scrub with any rag or towel it will come off extremely fast lol i just took of another set off my vehicle today using my method
Coid Thunder i have a pressure washer. Would spraying brake cleaner then power washing it work?
But then you will remove the factory clear coat
Was it quick?
Dallas Parker Bro literally i went to one of those wash your own car, that have a pressure washer and a brush, i would put the spray on the rim, then use the pressure washer on it and really quick 😂 It's faster than any other method you would probably try out
Band Buddy Yes that works
what if i used duplicolor? ive been using sandpaper and it's been a good hour and im not even 25% done yet with one wheel, the sandpaper is working its just going to take days at the rate im going, please reply
Very good idea how to remove plastc dip
Thanks buddy 💪
You can also use paint thinner as well
What if what if it's hard and caked up? Purple Power and Scotch-Brite pad? I have some on around my tail lights that's going to get painted anyway
The wheels on your CC in the beginning look really nice!
What about if I don’t want to take the wheels off to get this done?
what if your wheels are freshly balanced and mounted on your car.... Will rubbing alcohol ruin anything on the rotors or pads if you peel off the big spots and than g to a car wash to remove the remains hard to get too spots?
Shouldn't, alcohol evaporates right away
Thought I'd ask if you still had the 2nd set of rims that were on the car when you started the video? I have the same set on my Volkswagen Eos and have been looking for another set. I know this video is old, but wanted to inquire if you wanted to sell them.
can also use thinner if its too thin to peel
rubbing alc will remove any wax or seal on your car so if you do get it on your car make sure to rewax that spot or it will be unprotected.
It will also try to breakdown your tire rubber, so getting it in the tires will cause cosmetic damage if left too long.
In my personal experience if you wipe clear coat with alchohol then it will begin to fade and appear dull and will require to be polished to give it that shine again
Thanks man not all heroes wear capes
Great video. I'm gonna Plasti dip one rim to see if I like it. If not take it off. So worth the risk now. Thnx
That works only in recently plasti dip. But it doesn’t work on surfaces with old plasti dip
Ik I can’t get my old plastidip off my rims for the life of me 😭
The best way to dissolve the dip off imo at my detail shop is with adhesive remover it basically liquifies it and it just wipes off
Like goo gone?
I know this is from some time ago, but do you still have those wheels you pulled off? I'm in Central FL and can take them off your hands if so.
Thanks bro
The alcohol is not going to ruin the rubber of the tires?
Very nice LS430 in the back
If u apply a new coat of the plasti did stuff and let it get almost completely dry it’ll roll right off and gasoline works very well too just not the healthy solution
Will acetone work?
I just bought a car thats is cover with plastic dip. The old owner says about 2yrs old on plastic dip. I want to remove it but need more ideas
I also have a car with a bunch of plasti-dip on it... did you get it all off of yours?
What if there are no tires mounted on the wheels?
Brake cleaner will make it wipe off instantly. It also removes tail light spray tint
Can you use the break cleaner on the body of the car without missing up the paint?
@@rogervidales6782 I wouldn’t recommend it
@@rogervidales6782 no, it will ruin the paint. Most Wheels have clear coat on them, which will be ruined by the brake cleaner.
Do not use brake cleaner on any painted surface!
Ty Sam
Plastic razor blades would help scraping that remainder portion too. thanks for vid. Need to remove P-Dip from wheels to sell my car
Do you know how many coats it had on?
I only put 1 coat on my rims and it’s killing me to remove it
The thinner the coat the harder it is to remove. I added 4 coats on top of a thin coat. It bonded with the old coat and the thicker it is the easier it pulls off
hozurdaddy yea I only put 1 coat. It’s been a pain trying to remove it. I don’t really want to add more coats. Don’t want to throw money away. Ima try other methods before I do that. Thanks
likkaweyy I know what ya mean. I about rubbed the skin off my fingers on a really thin coat one time and then I learned that trick and ever since it peals off really easy
Kerosene also works very well.
what percentage is your alcohol Samcrac ?
he sed use the highest so no less than 70% wud be best
Degreaser works too
you know the pressure washer on the highest setting will hurt the paint on the wheel that’s why there’s a car setting on some pressure washers because it won’t harm the paint
Go Bolts!
Thanks sam
You were lucky the rubber coat was thick enough. I used WD-40 and lots of elbow grease... in my case the rubber paint dried over the summer and the rubber layer got too thin to peel it off. WD-40 helped dissolve the rubber + WD-40 soaked sponge & old rags helped remove it. After WD-40 it is necessary to use water with dish soap and clean rags to remove the greasy residue & have the rims perfectly clean. Final step is to apply paint wax & buff it off to protect the surface and reduce the amount of brake dust sticking to the surface.
I just got some wheels and it looks thin. How screwed am i?
Vincent Valentine fr me too
rubbing alcohol took the finish off my rims now it looks like someone jizzed all over it GREAT VIDEO
Won't this make your tires brown over time??? As in the next day
No it’s not bleach
99.9% Isopropyl alcohol is also great for removing tree sap from your paint.
Dont know if ive even seen 99.9%. I have seen 91% but even that is usually sold out with the bs 70% remaining.
Printer shops cary 99
Nail polish remover with acetone cleans sap very easily.
Gasoline works best I just took plastidip off my wheels after 6 years and I used gasoline and a pressure washer and it came off flawlessly very little effort
I said plastidipp came off with gasoline? You sparayed it on or like putting gas on with a brush?
I did a shitty job on my plasti dip do it’s a little hard to take off. It looks nice but I could’ve done a better job. 2nd time should look better!
Very nice
Previous owner dipped it RIGHT. I have dipped 4 cars so far. Got a car from dealer and, someone dipped the wheels. Horrible job, so thin. If its put on right you dont even need a solution. Good video nonetheless.
I am about to try to remove a thin layer that someone left after running out of product lol... how did you take it off when it was too thin?
Thanks!
👌
Work but i found something a lot better, heavy duty grease remover, its work amazing
Plastic dip removal works too.
The fact that you have a product in home, doenst make it free... XD, but great video!
Thanks dog appreciate it
That only works if you put it on thick. It doesn't work if it's a thin layer of plasti dip
Not sure what exactly the alcohol did peeling the product off your rim is how it was meant to be used. spray a lil kerosene and watch it melt off without peeling.
You do realize that this is exactly how plasti dip is designed to work? You don’t even need rubbing alcohol....
It doesn't always work like this, it all depends on the thickness of the layers that are sprayed on.
Yeah I've tried just about everything and can not get it off. The last owner I guess decided to attempt to plasti dip the wheels and only did one and I assume gave up because all the other wheels were untouched. Benefit is the wheel is already black but now I have one that is half gloss black half matte black. Still can't find anything. That works. I have tried goo gone Automotive and it has removed parts but doesn't seem to budge on the rest.
Apply with a sponge
Mineral terps breaks it down and removes it.
Rubbing alcohol dries out rubber. I would be really cautious about letting it pool very long between the tire and the rim
Gawd your a retard.. think about the things you say as advice.. dries out tires.. jeez.. you dont think them spinning at 10k rpm on a surface thats over 100° while supporting a ton of weight would be a bit more harsh of an environment for them than rubbing alcohol?
The previous owner of my car didn't plasti dip right or something happened and the dip is peeling. Hopefully I'm right and it is plasti dip and I can just remove it, otherwise I'm about to spend a lot of money for new emblems. LOL
2:32 RIP HEADPHONE USERS!!!!!
but I'm in california and we are in a drought, cant use water as freely like you did.
somebody could report you, be careful.
Two likes
No thanks
Lmaol this ain't fast
Er
Well duh if you put it on thick enough it peels off in under 60 seconds. I do it all the time with my bare hands and no alcohol or water. Not so easy with thin layers. Thin layers BLOW
Adam Sandler?
This isn't free? You're still out the cost of the isopropyl alcohol.
Kids.. Stop using plasti dip worst invention ever
Adam Sandler? .
What a total waste of an alcohol bottle 🤣🤣🤣 if it didn't melt it, it's not doing anything. 😅😅😅
You can buy alcohol at the dollar store...calm down
Yea she no work like that most the time..
Bullshit video, this is the correct way to take it off, not the way if someone applied it wrong
One gay song
Plasti dip= broke amateur
Plasti-dip = Temporary. Some kids out there are smart enough to realize that if you alter a vehicle with paint that you "almost" always reduce its resale value. With Plasti-dip you don't have to strip/refinish and paint back to stock, which won't look stock again anyway.
Broke dude did this comment lmao
Stupidest comment yet.
Rich soon to be poor doofus = Spends 3K to buy black rims when he could have just paid $10 for 2 cans of dip for the same effect.
