Default Yes, it went quite well

A ton of prep work and some tricky PC'ing to get it looking perfect. I am going to do the rest, and then run them next summer so I'll better be able to tell how they hold up next summer. For now, this is going in my spare tire well.

Default Too much

It was curbed pretty badly, and the factory paint takes quite a while to strip even with industrial grade paint stripper.

Thanks, no clear at all - just the powder.
