| Painting my wheels I have got a set of hub caps on my car and they are looking a bit taty. I cannot afford to put alloys on it as the insurance will increase, so I am going to paint them. Any suggestions how? I was thinking: 1) Get the flaked paint off and key them 2) A few coats of plastic primer 3) Paint But what paint should I use as it needs to be tough and durable? And also what colours do people reckon? Black? Realy dark grey/anthracite? White?

| Re: Painting my wheels On me sei i have sprayed them black. They were originaly silver but most of that had come off and it was jsut the grey plastic so i rubbed them down throughly with wet nd dry and they just sprayed a few coats with matt black body paint. I think it looks nice but thats my opinion!
