DA sander, 80 grit, and some good ale. Have at it!

Oh yeah, scotchbrite pads for the area real close tot he bead (where the DOT/sizing marks are) so that area doesn't stay shiny.

Indeed. This is how a lot of people have been making "wide whites" for a long time too. Take any tire with a thin white stripe, or white lettering, sand down with a DA, and you'll find that about 90% of the sidewall is white underneath. I did this on my Caddy.
