    Cheers Bulletman
    Just rubbed back with 2 grades of sand paper, etch primed then 2 coats of VHT wheel paint.
    The paint goes along way and i reckon the 2 cans i bought will easily do 10 rims, the nozzle is perfectly suited to getting between the spokes.
    Make that 8 rims, thought i'd done 5 already and can is nearly out.

    Looks awesome. Did you paint the inside of the rim as well?

    I didn't, I had planned to but you hardly see the rest of the rim.

    If i was going to do the whole rim i'd get some 2k and spray them properly with tyres off.

    I have a healthy layer of brake dust on the inside, creating a lovely matt black finish...
