I'm really annoyed that you didn't do a 17-minute intro explaining how the plastidip was applied, about weather in Australia, and about all the methods that didn't work. How do you expect to be successful on this platform with such straight-forward and concise videos? Geez.
Just finished removing the plasti dip from my rims. I bought some kerosene at Lowes for about 11 bucks, and used a paint brush to work it in. After getting 90% off, I put some kerosene in a spray bottle, and went to a diy car wash. Total time: 2 hours. Done and DONE. Thanks!
WORKS AS ADVERTISED!!! Just did my whole 1999 Toyota Corolla (YES THE WHOLE CAR 3 year old thick plasti dip job) using this method and it took like an hour. I used a soft bristle car wash brush to swirl the Kerosene around and a towel to wipe it off. Didn't bother the paint under it at all. The day before I wasted like 6 hours trying the Goo Gone and a power washer and it just made a huge mess!!! Came across this video and it worked just like you see here. THANKS BRO you saved me so much time and effort... Genius!!!
Well I tried many of the different ways online for removing old plastidip and your way was the only way that worked with any kind of speed. Thank you for the info, but from what I can see your the only 1 who mentioned this method.
Thank you!! My daughter bought a car with poorly done & peeling Plasti-Dip on the rims and after fighting with it using Goo Gone, WD-40, Nail Polish Remover and other various chemicals for several hours, the Kerosene worked quickly and removed all the stubborn remaining bits in 5 minutes!
Thanks so much 😊 Yesterday i spent literally 4 hours getting badly sprayed plastidip off the first wheel from a car I just bought, Today - just 1 hour and the next rim is done 😊 mine are really bad because the entire wheel inside and out is lightly sprayed and baked on but I reckon for a normal Plastidip removal this would work a treat. Brilliant
Thank you! I wasted a lot of time today with knives, scrapers, methylated spirits and isopropyl alcohol. In the end it was Shellite (also a lantern fuel) which melted my plastidip. Thanks!
Nice! It's about time I did mine as well. I've had good results with Goo-Gone. I also have plasti dipped bumpers, those are plastic, so I'm not going to use this to remove the plasti dip as I don't want my plastic bumpers affected. But it's peeling pretty good from there.
How I wish I saw this vid 2 days ago! I ended up using Desovit from Bunnings.. it's a "goo remover".. worked but much slower... it softened the plastidip, then I used a plastic razor blade to scrap the bulk away, then a rag soaked in desolvit to remove the rest. I think your way would have been MUCH faster and less labour intensive. Well done!
Legit. If you look at all the how to remove PD tutorials- this is the only liquid solvent that actually dissolves PD, vs weaken PD to assist in peeling off.
How long did each wheel take for the Plasti dip to completely come off? I’ve also heard that rubbing alcohol can be used to melt the plast dip but it’s really bad for the tires...
Thanks mate for the video, what do you reckon about turpentine? I got some of that home and with the corona shit and all I want to avoid going to bunnings if I can.
2 hours? i spend 10 hours today fixing thin plastidip from just bought wheels, so thin and the inside seems to be like baked on. will try petroleum tomorrow:)
Why not acetone? Finger nail polish remover about melts linoleum flooring and the car I bought the rims are plasti whatever and actually feels tacky like acetone would just eat it
I will definitely be trying this. I tried to normally remove the Plasti-Dip & I gave up after making only a small dent in 1 of my wheels. I KNEW this was going to be a frustrating process, so I said F it! Can't wait to get this SH*T off as I am going to get my wheels powder coated instead. I'll be sure when I do this I'll head to local car wash bay so I can use the pressure washer.
Went with a presurwaser and the 25° tip to get the bulk of it off still need to get in to the stubborn spots with something better then water even at ultra high pressure, and to be honest anything would have probably been less messy and soaking wet lol

After 4 years of testing different products and techniques, finally something that actually works! Thank you so much!

Wow.. all the other vids of brake cleaner, WD-40 etc just kind breaks it down... This literally melts it... Great video!
Glad you liked it!

Thanks for taking the time for sharing this information, very informative straight to the point no BS talking like others great job
Cheers!! Thanks for the comment.
Alex Carrillo what Alex said. After watching your to the point video I literally went to Home Depot to buy some. I’m re painting my wheels.
Just did my four wheels. It was amazingly easy. Thanks!!😁👍
Well I tried many of the different ways online for removing old plastidip and your way was the only way that worked with any kind of speed. Thank you for the info, but from what I can see your the only 1 who mentioned this method.
By far the fastest way and really cheap. Thanks for the no BS and getting to the point.
No problem 👍

Fantastic!
The kerosene doesn't ruin the rubber of the tires?

Glad it helped!
Same here! Previous owner did an awful job on the rims. I spent hours with goo gone. Will look for this product now!
Thank you! I wasted a lot of time today with knives, scrapers, methylated spirits and isopropyl alcohol.
In the end it was Shellite (also a lantern fuel) which melted my plastidip. Thanks!

I would be careful using it on bumpers too. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks can't wait to try it tomorrow! Just bought a 335i and the factory wheels are horribly plasti-dipped. Whoever did it should be ashamed.
Cheers
Hey mate great video can I use a pressure washer after kerosene has soaked in ??

Cheers. I have also used 'wax and grease remover' and it's really good too.
Does the kerosene ever hurt the wheels? Mine are painted or powder coated, not sure which. I mainly want to plasti dip then black for a little bit.
Thank you for taking the time to post this 😎👍
My pleasure!
Excellent tip thank you. Dip dissolve is very expensive in canada. Kerosene is very cheap
Thank you, this looks better than any other product I've seen used. I will be trying this on my rims.
No problem 👍
Will kerosene damage rubber?
Just fine it today And it work wonders!! Thanks for sharing it.
Glad it helped.
Excellent, and this does not damage the original paint right? Thank you so much. Could it be done with paint thinner you think?
Paint thinner would work but would be more likely to damage the paint underneath. This is pretty safe.
@@killawattgarage thanks :D
Some say you can use rubbing alcohol. Which is better? kerosene seems messy to me
Rubbing alcohol may not be strong enough but give it a try
Does it work on autodip too?
I have black dip over my white rims, will this remove the white as well?
How long did each wheel take for the Plasti dip to completely come off? I’ve also heard that rubbing alcohol can be used to melt the plast dip but it’s really bad for the tires...
About 2-4 mins.
Killa Watt Garage cool I’m definitely going to go this route just waiting for it to get a little warmer outside
nice video thx ! will this ruin the car paint ? i wanna remove some dip from my spoiler
Not at all
Thanks mate for the video, what do you reckon about turpentine? I got some of that home and with the corona shit and all I want to avoid going to bunnings if I can.
Turpentine is not petroleum based and I believe it is plant based. I would give it a try but I think it would be a long shot.
@@killawattgarage cheers, well it works as well as in your video! very greasy, so needs a lot of cleaning after but all good in the end.
@@djcalle1975 Thats awesome, thanks for sharing.
Do you think I can used this on my car door ? I’m having a hard time peeling the top part of my door
sure
Mate I wish I had found your video 2 hours ago been trying to clean it so far just got two wheel slightly clean. Thank a lot will try tomorrow
thanks and I hope the cleanup is easy fo you.
2 hours? i spend 10 hours today fixing thin plastidip from just bought wheels, so thin and the inside seems to be like baked on. will try petroleum tomorrow:)
Why not acetone? Finger nail polish remover about melts linoleum flooring and the car I bought the rims are plasti whatever and actually feels tacky like acetone would just eat it
Kerosene is regular gas right? That u can buy at gas Station right?
Different in different countries, also called paraffin, lamp oil, and coal oil.
I had awesome luck with the little white magic erasers (used on chrome window/ Grille trim)
Cool tip, will try it out next time
Best solution ive found online so far
Awesome. Glad it helped you out. Thanks for the comment.
Killa Watt Garage do you know if the kerosene will damage the black lacquer behind the dip? I have the same issue with mine it’s a pain in the ass 😫
Does it work on the car ? Or only on rims
It will work on any surface, but just try a small section first to double check.
I will definitely be trying this. I tried to normally remove the Plasti-Dip & I gave up after making only a small dent in 1 of my wheels.

What’s the name of the product
I tried it. It worked!
awesome!!
Will this damage the tires rubber?
Never had any problems with it on tyres.
Great job mate! Thanks for the tip!!
No problem 👍
You run into major issues trying to remove the Plastidip when using too few coats...I would recommend 6 or more coats to make it peelable.
thanks for the tip.
Worked for me too thanks for heads up, I used a power washer to help after kerosene ,
👍
is kerosene safe on rubber? asking for 4 friends
should be fine
Its parafine oil?
Yep same stuff
Thanks, mate.
Also heard good things about good old gas... need to try both my self.
🥃cheers🍻
cheers
Went with a presurwaser and the 25° tip to get the bulk of it off still need to get in to the stubborn spots with something better then water even at ultra high pressure, and to be honest anything would have probably been less messy and soaking wet lol
That’s amazing
Use oven oil cleaner, just don’t get in on car paint and cover the disc
Awesome will give it a try
Will not remove factory plasti dip. Didn't even touch mine.
Fucking beautiful. Thanks mate! Just got some used rims and they got a super thin layer. I imagine this will work gloriously. Thanks again!
No problem
Can i use the kerosene 1k clean burning fuel
yes
Can I use 1k kerosene clean burning fuel?
Yes give it a try
@@killawattgarage Did 1k Kerosene work?
Awesome !
Thank you!
You're welcome!
El nombre de este líquido cuál es
queroseno
I can’t find it in the US 😪
Maybe called Paraffin Oil
Can't find kerosene in the US?
Wd-40 works good to
I tried WD40 but had more success with the kero.
WD-40 doesn't work worth a s***
@@coreyblacksher i found if u let it soak in for a bit it will pill off better i did it on my channel
@@focused200 how long did you let it sit because I let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes and it sucked it did absolutely nothing
@@coreyblacksher about that long but i soaked the crap out of them. Use goo gone also
Thanks 💙
thanks for watching!
Thanks ;)
No problem!
you know what also works amazingly well and is only about $3 a gallon? gasoline.
No way!
I love you 😂
cheers
This video was great, except for the Australian accent part.
HaHa, thanks bloke!
Great work Tobias
Is it safe on chrome wheels?
