Painted Metal / Chrome/ Rims Overspray Removal Process
For smaller areas of overspray, all that is needed is a fiber stick and a clean rag. Soaking the overspray with prep wash will help soften the material and ease the removal process. If prep wash is used, dry the area with a clean rag prior to working on it.
CAUTION – Do not get prep wash on plastic trim, caulk lines, or head/tail lights.
Using moderate pressure, start removing the overspray until area is cleaned.
CAUTION: Applying too much pressure can damage the clear coat as well as the paint under the clear coat.
Painted Metal Overspray Removal Process
For larger areas of overspray, a power drill with wax wheel attachment can be used. Use masking tape to mask off the area you are will be working on. Wax wheel performs better if the area is dry.
Start slow working up to a medium speed, start using the wax wheel on the overspray area. When complete, use a clean rag with prep-wash and wipe the area to remove any excess wax or particulates.
CAUTION: If working next to plastic, make sure the plastic is masked off so the wax wheel will not damage the plastic. Do not use wax wheel on plastic trim, chrome, tail lights, glass and finished bedliner within bed.
