Title: Stripping The Paint Off Black Shimano Pedals
Post by: Retrodan72 on April 29, 2014, 08:19 PM: Has anyone ever done this?

I've done it on red and gold, but not sure if black will come off with the nitro mors the same. ???

The surface is dimpled so the paint sticks like sh1t to a blanket - I used a tooth brush after leaving them soak overnight in the end.
