What I can tell you is to use soft sand paper, lightly sand out the rough spots on your wheels try to get it as smooth as possible. On the lip I used a medium grit then I used a soft grit to smooth out all the crub rash. I cant remember what grit I used sorry painting - just lay the wheels down on the grass and spray them. I tryed to keep the passes as lights as possible. Whenever the paint ran I just wiped it off with a rag and did that spot over. definatly do light sprays Later DEF -------------------- I will return one day. |
