What is the best way to remove shock springs paint?
 
As the title says really, what is the best way to make all my springs look the same by removing the colour coating off the springs?

Cheers

Si

apart from keep the identity of the springs your using a secret,
why would you, acetone I'm guessing or paint stripper,

Just because i think it looks better, Bright Pink spings do not go that well with the colour of my shells.... Just being a tart really

I used paint stripper and just left a small amount NOT submerged to leave an identifying tag. Nitromorse was good.

Si why not ask Craig to do you a set to match your new shells he's doing for you. As he did a set of dark grey ones for my 2wd;)

You can also paint them with a can.

Does removing the powder coating affect the weight of the spring, I dare say it does! best bet is to paint them with a standard light coating of black automotive paint
