Hey i wanted to paint my wheels black. I was was curious on which paint i should buy? and any other good tips. thanks

 

check the stickies first next time .....heres the link though http://forums.maxima.org/showpost.ph...2&postcount=17

 

any good brand of paint, krylon, sem, rustoleum etc. using high temp is a good idea.

 

Give it like couple months you will regret you did. Mine is already looking like crap. Paints peels off easy. I wouldn't do it again. Don't get me wrong it looks good for the first 5 min. Grrrr i have to strip mine off.

 

Ive got no problems with duplicolor wheel paint.

 

yea the duplicolor wheel paint and some clear coat worked out fine for me.

 

i painted mine gunmetal with the wheel paint from autozone and i couldnt get the paint to peel off even if i tried to scrape it off. just be sure u use some brake cleaner to take off all the grease and grime off such as armorall that got on ur rims by accident. to this day i sill like the way mine looks. i just didnt use clear coat though... i think it looks better without it if u are using this paint.

 

duplicolor works great...used two cans of the graphite paint on my wheels and then used duplicolor's clear coat. If u don't put enough coats of the paint or clear coat it will peel though

 

Yep, I did the same thing, actually re-doing them right now because I did a crappy job before, here is how they are coming so far

 

Thanx For the advice guys!!!

 

here are two designs i've been working on for my current rims.

Gunmetal w/ polished lip and silver lines
