has anyone used this to paint their wheels before? any pictures?

 

bump!

 

It is silver, how different could it actually look than any other silver?

I will contribute. I painted my calipers with this paint.

Compare it to the white, and black of the center and you can get an idea of how light it is. Not a whole lot of flake in it, but it is a great paint.



Feel better now?

 

I used this on my old wheels..

I'm trying to match or get as close as possible to OE wheel finish, so that's why I asked.

Thanks for the pic. Might be a little darker than what I'm looking for

Try going to O'Reillys or Autozone or something and look for the touch up spray paint in the aerosol can. Get Vogue Silver Metallic and that should work. Just use a lot of clear and prep the wheel really well. Do a few coats and wet sand between coats.

 

Yeah I'm about to. Checked Walmart and Homedepot, but nothing close enough.

Yeah, when I bought the cans I actually thought it would be lighter also. But when the sun hits it, it has a flake to it and I'm glad I ended up doing this color, came out really glossy.

 

Nothing at Autozone or O'rilleys that was close at all. I guess I have to settle for something a little darker.

I really was trying to help. I've whored the wheels plenty haha.

 

i think it's a nice color myself

 

It's a pretty dark silver honestly, and it has kind of a bronzeish tint to it. if you are looking for a OE color silver use Duplicolor aluminum engine enamel. its a prefect silver and lays on/sets very very smooth. here is a picture of one of my wheels painted with the engine enamel with no clear...

 

^^^ nice wheels
