do it yourself, get paint stripper, or air craft stripper..

if that doesnt do it, take them somewhere to sand blast them.

yeah well the rims i have now have like 3-4 layers on them and they are chipped and basically falling apart... painting over them is just a **** job and won't be smooth due to the chipping and doing it myself will just takes WAY too long and is way too much work.,. id rather get it done by someone professionally

does anyone know a shop i can get them sandblasted for a decent price???

I think that you and a sandblasting shop may have different opinions on what a "decent price" is.

You know what seems to work really well though? A needle scaler. I used one for the first time a few weeks ago on a snowblower and it beats sandblasting hands down.
