I recently painted my wheels black using Dupli-color "adhesion promoter", BBQ paint & wheel specific clear coat. The BBQ paint is very rugged & can handle lots of heat, also it sticks very well to most surfaces. The wheel specific clear coat will not yellow with age or UV exposure. Clean, sand, clean, prime, paint, paint, clear to desired level of shine. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/img814.imageshack.us-11125-1280341742.1.jpg) Powder coat is a far superior option, but this is a budget friendly option. |
