Did you check this thread out?:

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/how-paint-your-factory-18s-22190/

"1. go buy all the supplies-1 can primer, 1 can flat black paint (im pretty sure that glossy would work, but would *gasp* be more shiny!) 2 cans clear paint. ALL FROM NAPA AUTO PARTS! Also, you need paint stripper fromt he home depot"

Don't know if you have already seen that, if so, my bad.

Just to give you a heads up. Don't do it this way. Hatrick's wheels came out very nice, but he admitted himself that these are track only rims. You will need to powdercoat them if you want the paint to last through daily driving. It will cost you roughly $100 /wheel to have this done depending where you go and who you know. This is the route I will be taking.

Agreed. Powdercoating is definately the way to go.
