The first time you have tires mounted, you will need to repair. Even the best tire machine wii mess up the edge.

Is there any special method to remove it? Will a pressure washer take it off?

It feels off the same as vinyl. Pressure washer will not take it off unless it's really powerful and you are right on it. I power wash them to clean them all the time no problems .

Nice, thanks for the tips! I've been staring at curb rash on my wheels for way too long. This might be a fun little project to cover it up. Are you using any sort of special cleaner to get the wheels clean before you spray?

I clean the wheels with soap and water. Air dry them with a compressor the i clean them with some an alcohol cleaner. Then dip away. Light coats,i go up to 5 coats. DIPYOURCAR.COM has all the stuff you would need to do it.
