Default PB Blaster and Paint

Will PB Blaster damage paint? Specifically on painted aluminum like say a 84-86 wheel?

Got a stuck lug nut and can't even get it off with my impact... I've been wanting to give it a shot but I can't confirm the damage possibilities.

Thanks

I used PB to remove some double sided tape in the drawers of my Craftsman tool box and it didn't bother the paint at all.

However, I would test a small unseen area of the part that you are referring to just to make sure.

BTW, it worked great on removing the double sided tape!

Mike.

Got some on the paint, but wiped off immediately and used some soap/water to rinse the area, no problems with the pain...
