DIY wheel painting :)

simple instructions, not that complicated unless your a dodo.

start by removing wheels from car an taping off tires. (which is unnecessary, because i had no problems without taping it.)

strip the paint using klean strip or aircraft.

i had powder coat black and 7 layers of black chassis paint.
chassis paint came right off.....powder coat...HELL.

after 6 layers of stripper we decided to jump to the 400 grit sanding(wet)
.
wipe down with mineral spirits and when it dries spray your preferred .
i chose engine enamel because it is heat resistant (500 degrees)

3 layers of primer and 4 of engine enamel bronze.
spray every 45minutes.

after last spray move it inside and wake up happy
and i sprayed my calipers a terminator chrome while i was waiting

(me and my buddy chong lloyd and frank accomplished this in 10 hours)

Wow, nice job. Makes me want to paint my stockers

thanks man. the only complicated part is prep work. good prep=good outcome.

correct me if im wrong but in you case, all you would need to do would be a fine sanding of your stockers. paint stick best on paint.

nice 400 wet sanding to a 600 at most then 2 primers and AT LEAST 3 coats of color.

i stayed at 400 for a semi matte finish so its not smooth gold.

go for it you cant go wrong.

If you guys want to paint your stock rims I suggest PlastiDip ($7 a can at Lowes, get 4 cans). I did it this weekend, it was really easy and really cheap, and it looks good!

(I know I need to redo my calipers, not sure how though)
