Loads of hard work with the sandpaper before hand really pays off. Been like that for nearly a year now and no peeling yet.
I'm guessing you know how to... Or are you looking for a guide step by step too?

extremely simple to do, done it numerous times now, preparation is the key

[Simon@SprayShack]

Your local to us, are they just the standard wheels? if so we should be able to do a good price. We can do them in Matt or Gloss no problems

I agree. Black on black looks great. Get some tire shine on that too!

That's a good one.
I literally used wall filler on any previous curbing and let it set then smoothed it over before painting

Are you doing it inside?
I wouldn't even attempt to do any of the paint work/drying outside if there is any sort of breeze.

yh ive done about 6 sets of wheels and i have to say prep work it the key to a good finish, but i do use a compressor and a devilbiss spray gun get a better finish then rattle cans, but you can still get good finishes with them.
