Those look pretty sweet, what type of paint did you use ?

[extim]

It is Duplicolor metal cast anodized surface color system. It comes in Blue, Yellow, and red.

Where would you purchase paint like that??? I am familiar with the duplicolor paint but have never seen the "metal cast anodized surface color system".

Thanks for the info and they look freaking sweet.

I think it turned out great! I really like how you kept the outside of the rim the natural finish!:macho :cool:

Thanks for the picture and the information!

BTW, they look too good to get dirty!!:D

[extim]

Thanks guys,

It is a brand new product. It should be arriving at places you normally find Duplicolor soon. I got mine at the Automotive paint store I work at. If you would like to try it let me know and I could help you out. It seems very durable. I took lacquer thinner and a rag and could not wipe it off.

that looks sweeet!;)

[sandman]

That looks great !

[user101]

if u dont mind me askin how much did the paint cost
did it come in a can or is it like a powdercoating system

[extim]

thanks everyone for the positive comments. The paint comes in a spray can. I know what you are thinking but first I painted an empty can. The following day I tried to scratch it and it was very scratch resistent and lacquer thinner wouldn't take it off, whcih proves that it is solvent resistent.

All I did was
1. use a wax and grease remover on the wheels.

2. scuff them up with a scotch brite pad .
3 clean again with was and grease remover
4 apply masking tape and paint

[extim]

sorry user 101. I forgot to answer your question it sells for around $8.00 a can and I only needed one can.

THat stuff looks wicked sweet. I was thinking about painting my subframe but i am gonna wait until i can get some of that stuff. I think it will look much bettter.

Sweet lookin'!! Thats something you dont see everyday...

BTW, I feel for you when you slide around on some loose gravel and chip them all to crap! I got to looking at my rims and they are beat all up, but you cant tell it unless you get right up to it....
