Beadlock beauty ring paint

[brian.schacht.1]

Has anyone stripped the paint from the 2020 beauty rings? I love the look of the Ford performance beadlock rings but don’t really need them for my daily life. Thinking about stripping the beauty rings to raw aluminum, but want to see if anyone has experience with this before I start.

Nobody has paint stripped their beauty rings???

probably not a good idea. although aluminium is rust resistant, it will still corrode and pit. the powdercoat protects that from happening

I’d I was to opt for naked beauty rings, I would get them sand blasted. It would be a matte finish.

I think any chemical paint stripper would work. Would be messy. You’d have to scrub out the screw holes.

Other option - silver Plastidip. Removable also. I did mine in OD but removed it eventually.

I'm thinking about red Plasti-Dip.

x2 on the plasti dip. Always a good way to see if you like the way it looks.

Raw color, lack of color... would make them stand out but coat them with a clear. Plastic dip is an option but just like any other finish requires maintenance once in a while. Any change to factory is a good one off.

Mine are done similar, but they are powder coated.

I plasti-dipped my ‘18 right after I picked it up to see if I’d like the look if I had them powder coated. It’s lasted so well I’m just going to leave it.
