Body Paint on Rims

[ROJ]

The previous owner of my car had it resprayed after an accident but by mistake one of the rims has been sprayed... Is there any chemicals i could use to remove the sprayed paint without causing damage to the rim's look...

if it is just light overspray then your best bet would be to get some 1200 grit wet/dry paper. Soak it in warm water and then gently rub at the over spray. This will lightly rub away the overspray leaving you with the clearcoat that was originaly on the wheel.

The area will now be matt (rather than glossy) due to the sanding so get some polish (tcut will do) and apply to the area you have just sanded. Polish up the area and wipe off the remaining residue from the polish.

Should look good as new.

If the wheels are not laquared you can use nail polish remover.

yeh, two good options. just make sure not to rub to deep with sand paper.
