Painting Wheels, Did Search, not a question I've seen posed Options

[Fastbird]

I'm highly considering picking up the wheels we WANT and painting them the color we want. I.E. HPR5 wheels in silver, center section painted black.

Now, my question is this: How durable is the paint going to be, and how glossy??? I'd like to get it looking like powdercoat, but I need to make sure that it's going to hold up to the elements. Would a brake caliper paint work possibly???

Also, what are the odds of the paint taking if I don't scuff the surface at all??? I REALLY have reservations about taking a brand new unmounted set of wheels and tearing them up.

TIA

Sand before primer so the primer sticks. And make sure u degrease them and clean them off well before u primer. Good Luck -John
