So apparently Rustoleum Aircraft Remover cannot be purchased anymore due to its toxicity. I want to clean the clear coat off my Laredo chrome wheels, so what seems to be the best remover now? Last thing I want to do is send them to be re-chromed...

Any ideas?

You might look around antique shops. Some of the larger ones sell paint stripper which still contains methylene chloride. Another option would be to take the wheels to a furniture refinishing shop. Since they are professionals they are still able to purchase the remover the DIY can't and can strip the wheels easily with the equipment they have.

It's another case of some idiots that misuse a product and then blame the company so big brother has to step in.
