I have damaged one of my rims :-(

Now i have to repaint them or powder coat.



Anybody knows the colour?

Thanks

Greetings from germany

 

I searched around and couldn't find anything. Your best bet is to take it to a paint shop and perhaps they can match it for you.

 

I have that same wheel. It will be near impossible to match that finish. Best bet would be to buy a new wheel.

 

or anybody have a color code from Duplicolor Bronze HWP105 Bronze
??



That wheels is painted in that colour

 

bronze volks arent painted or powdercoated, there anodized, you cant match that finish and color, i use to have a a set its impossible

 

best bet is to strip the paint from all four, and paint them a matching shade.

 

you cant strip the paint, there anodized, you whould have to prep them as best you can then powder coat over all 4 of them for them to match

 

Why i cant paint all the 4 wheels in a new color?
Only powdercoating??
Anybody knows a powder coat color which match bronze

 

dude dont paint volks, powdercoat them, do it right the first time

if you do powdercoat them you need to do all 4 so they match, there not goin to have the same texture and there not goin to look the same

 

can't strip anodization? dang.

But you cant powdercoat bronze :-( Or maybe you have a color code over there?

And i have to sandblast the wheels before??

i use to have a set of bronze volk te37's and i soaked them in aircraft remover over and over, and it didnt do a thing but make them shinney and look nice again


anodizing is pretty strong and almost permenant, youd probally have to sandblast them or somthing pretty severe

 

anodizing actually sort of dyes the metal... it can be removed by sandblasting though I believe. There is not a "color code" for every color on everything on the earth... I am not sure where people get the idea that there is some code for every color. Just take them to a powdercoating shop... tell them the color you are looking for and they will give you a book to look through and select the one that meets your needs Honda-tech can do nothing for you.

no the lips are anodized the wheel is "blow coated" then they are alumite treated and clear coated.

I was at a local shop here. The give me the color book and there is no bronze inside. I think here in germany you cant do that. Here every color which can be powder coatet has a number
