Painting suspension hubs - any advice?

[stourlos]

Hi All,

I am thinking of painting the suspension hubs in order to, primarily, protect them against rust.

Does anyone have a good piece of advise to offer?

Cheers,

As above and obviously don't get paint in the bolt holes.

Depends if you are taking them off the car or not. I took mine off and did them with Bilt Hamber hydrate 80 and gloss black spray paint. Still look great years later. Pics here.. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.463836503682602.1073741831.463821567017429&type=1

+1 Hydrate 80 is awesome stuff on rust.
