My friend used to do the acetoning off my old wheels any way since I got more cars now and more wheels I thought I best start doing it myself.

I went to the pound shop and got a sandwich box which has got the rubber type sealed lid.

I pour in some acetone enough to make it over the first rim when wheels are put in box.

Make sure you trim tyres back as much as you can first.

Seal box lid with wheels in and then leave well alone for 48hrs :-)

Come back to the box and the tyres should just peel off easily :-)

Once tyres are all off wheels I reput them back in box with the acetone for another 24hrs to remove any glue left on wheels then wash the wheels under tap water and hay presto job done :-)

Then either leave your acetone in the box or restore back in the original bottle.
