Default Help! should I use Duplicolor Gold (GS100) to paint my wheels?



yeah i'm just wondering if I should use Duplicolor Gold (GS100) to paint my wheels. Right now my HXs are bronze and i'm not really liking them anymore (Too brown) Also, im going to be using clearcoat with the paint. I just dont want the paint to chip off easily or when i'm driving under normal conditions

chrome gold with clear coat over it.. reason i had to clearcoat it was because the gold finish is very dusty, and even after it dried, if you touch it, your fingers will turn gold.. the paint would rub right off.
