What is the best paint to use to paint my rims??

oh come on i know someone can answer it.

 

powdercoating!

 

i would rather buy a new set of rims.

 

Here was my list of stuff for when i did mine

Dupli-color black (or dark color) sandable primer
Dupli-color gloss black paint
Dupli-color Clearcoat (and lots of it)

basically the more clearcoat u use the better.

any other questions?

 

So i don't need to do anything cuz of the sandable primer? or should i still sand?

 

well, im a master at this...

if u want truely balling, u gotta go powercoating. but walmart sells good paint.

 

if primer bonds you are good

agreed, i will be having my spokes doen when funds allow

 

Look for his^^^ how to, that would be a good start I followed his.

I used sandable primer on my rims and they turned out great. not to mention the sandable primer allows u to kind of work out any imperfections. If/when you do it, just make sure you take your time,.

 

i have alot of how-tos dont i...

 

yea i used duplicolor also... no chips... the job is all in the prep work... pick up some tack wipes, use a good quality tape (if your only doing the spokes), clean EVERYTHING as good as possible

 

^^^

you are welcome

 

and they all are wonderful! i just wish you could incorporate some rick rollage (new word) in to them

 

You'd be surprised. You can get powdercoating for pretty cheap, you just have to do research. There's a guy in Winchester VA that does powdercoating for $45 for a rim. 2fastss actually got his done black and they looked really good.

 

everywhere around here does it for $25 a piece

haha i would if reign wasnt so anti-hatrickstu

 

hahaha, its ok, reigns anti-cobaltsstuner. He told me if i get out of line one more time i'm gone for good, and jonyyb wont save me.......which would be my 5th time of bannage i think...

 

I'm not anti-stu, I like stu... but I'm anti spam

 

how come ur not anti-cobaltsstuner?

 

I can do some research on powder coating but last i checked the powder coating places were a tad spendy. Im only keeping these rims till i have enough cash to get new rims and tires so its not a HUGE deal. I think the duplicolor is going to work just fine.
