Painting wheels

[Matt_90]

Hi guys, i am really tempted to get my wheels done a satin or gloss black. I cant afford to get them done at the min through a body shop and i am tempted to give them ago myself. I aint to bad at spraying and i know a good finish is all in the prep.

I know many people have done it them selves and had great results.

Any help would be great

cheers matt

Im thinking of doing mine myself but dont know if I want to risk f**king the look up. Might just get them powder coated locally. £40 per wheel

I willhave a sleep on it, couzens i might take you up on that if go through with it. I am based in aldershot.

I thought about powder coating but i cant be fussed with getting tyres swapped around etc.
