Dipped my wheels a little over 2 years ago. Love the look. I'm peeling the dip off to either paint or powder coat them. Problem is that it's been on there so long, it's pretty brittle. I put 4 coats on, but it's peeling off in small pieces, and there's a lot that will be ridiculous to get off. Is there something I can spray on there to help this process?

I had the same issue. I found that reapplying a few coats made it peel off like it was fresh.
If you don't want to do that, WD40 will eat it off, but it makes a mess.

It's already a mess! I'll try anything ;-). Thanks!

Gasoline will eat it away too, but I wouldn't recommend that

(plasti-dip)

One my get away with using easy off oven cleaner.. I found while repaintings a few items.. and I made a mistake or the paint run.. I'd use the easy off oven cleaner there after. Although I've never tried to use this in conjunction with any plasti-dip or even on the rims.. I would try on a nondescript area of the rim first..
I guess there is a lesson here somewhere.. thus I'll never use Plasi-dip on any of my stuff. I've seen what happen to good stuff over time..

Let us know what worked...I'm thinking about taking the pdip off my stockers before I sell them.
Thanks!!

I feel your pain. I'll never use that plasti-dip shit ever again! The wd-40 works or try goof off adhesive remover.

I'm going to soak the remaining areas in WD-40 and use an abrasive plastic sponge. Plasti dip is good for what it does, but the videos made it look like a 5 year old could pull it off in one sheet! Once I get this off, I'll either bed line them or have them powder coated... But no more Plasti dip! I'll keep you posted...

A power washer makes it a simple job if you have access to one

My daughter sprayed smiley faces on the shop door, I didn't notice for a week or so, it wouldn't peel and it's not a smooth surface tried picking at it for a bit. Grabbed a rag, dumped some gas on it and the plasti dip wiped right off.
