I painted my old wheels with Duplicolor rattle cans. Sanded the face, no aircraft stripper... They came out well, pretty much perfect, I also used a few coats of clearcoat.

I painted lots of rim before, but it seem like Duplicolor doesnt make a bright red like rota red gt3. The rims that im gonna paint are some slipstream. I want it red w/the polish lip on it.
