depending on the paint paint thinner might not work the greatest. but the 2 spike suggested are good. if none of that works just resort to air craft stripper found at your local automotive supply store like napa or sherwin williams etc..
you looking to repaint or polish?

The only thing is with that air craft stripper that you can buy from them, it's not as strong as the stuff a body shop gets, plus you don't want to get that stuff on you at all, it will eat through clothes, and if it gets on your skin, it burn big time. I have used the really good stuff in the pass, it works well, but it ------- hurts like hell if it gets on you. So if you resort to that, get a brush, and a good set of gloves to wear.

I would take a minute after getting it stripped and add a couple of coats of wheel paint from CTC. The stuff is very good and pops when clear coat is added. For $20 you will have decent looking rims....
