I used it on sv fork lowers to no ill effect. A cast alloy part same as wheels.
Maybe someone else can shed light on why not to use it? |

I've used nitromorse on the SV wheels to not much effect, had to get some proper badass stripper to get the paint off the rims for polishing.

Stripped a layer paint and polish from a caliper with it

Get it done me old. Just make sure that you wash it off properly when you have finished, or it will tarnish the alloy.
