With great difficulty. I just stripped a couple of rear footpeg hanger brackets, using Nitromors and it took ages (I left them in a bag filled with the stuff for a week, and it was still really difficult) ended up using 120 grit and sanding it off.

What are you going to do with the wheels once you have them stripped?

That's easy then......

They always blast them before they coat them, just make sure all your bearing surfaces are protected.

and your threads. I always put some not good looking bolts in them ( make sure they stick out enough)
