Wheel Paint

I might try and refurbish my alloy, i have the 5 spoke blade alloys, does the paint have a specific code, like the bodywork paint does? only i want to match the colour of the other wheels.

cheers

Stu

Re: Wheel Paint

Why not get it powdercoated properly? Theres pleanty of wheel refurb places that will match the paint, most cost around £40 a wheel.

Unless you're really strapped for cash, I'd go for a professional re-spray (or powder coat). You'll never properly match it by hand, and the smoothing and filling is a nightmare.
