I had an idea. How hard could it be to stip and repaint both sets of wheels for my BMW?

Very. Having spent 4 hours today stripping (badly) and priming (haphazardly) one wheel, i quite frankly can't be arsed with the other three and the thought of my BBS crosspokes gives me a nervous twitch.

Does anyone know of somewhere i could send 8 wheels and have them come back in nice shiny bare metal? I'm happy enough to spray them myself but can't help thinking there's an easier way of getting paint off than a wire brush attachemnt on the drill and 8 acres of wet+dry.
