What the hell is this famous eraser wheel? Looks great!!

: google search FTW!! :

 

[camntyse]

its the best thing ever bro..... 3m eraser wheel, the brand i got was astro pneumatic. it attatches to a standard drill and it takes that adhesive crap off real quick. you can even you tube it, sh*t works like magic!

 

[Effeckt]

I so wish I knew about the wheel before I removed mine and suffered the blisters! Looks good though! Glad you learned of the wheel before tackling it!

looks very clean. nice job

 

[JKmotorsports]

Nice. I like how much cleaner it makes these trucks look just by debadging and removing the molding.
Nice job, man. Looks good.

 

[rgaffney]

[ammar456]

[camntyse]

[DwDrummer]

Looks good man! I just bought a eraser wheel so I'm about to take my moldings off too!

 

[iwaslowr]

If you have a dremel, the non abrasive buffing bits that come with some of the kits work great also.. might take a little longer because they are small.. but I decided to take mine off last weekend on a whim, so i didn't want to order the 3M and wait...

u know, looking at this again, get a super clean look by lowering and removing the side steps too... come to think of it, thats what im going to do

The consensus seems to be that these trucks look really odd without the side steps. But, definitely lower the truck (and lose the roof rack if you haven't already).

Is it worth it to take off the side moldings and the badges? Mine look like there starting to oxidize a little

 

[Modded]

I took mine off, though they were not oxidzed, looks better imo.

 

[Excon11]

I really like the look but don't wanna deal with the door dings. People at my school really don't know how to park....

 

[Modded]

Yeah I waited till I was out of High school to pull those off, but really they protect your doors from yourself screwing them up, not others using ther doors to screw you over.
Weird your still in HS, i'm a college Sophomore?
