Yep, pretty simple thing to do really.

Good job, they look barnd new .

I did my old ones Spoon blue to match my old wheels.

 

Hi Hawki
I used Plasti-Kote Plastic Primer and Plasti-Kote fast dry Enamel Areosol ALUMINIUM 109-S colour,
I got the H Stickers for Stickerdude on Ebay
and covered with Plasti-Kote Clear coat 119-S when they were Finished.
the colour is flater than the shiny original ones but I had the diamond cut look removed from my wheels when I had them Re furbished. The colour matches pretty well
Plasti-Kote do a good looking Chrome Effect paint 150-S which looks like it may match pretty well with the diamond edge if you have it on your wheels

no worries fella

as Suits sais its pretty easy

 

Need to do mine next week, does the top layer just peel away or did you sand back?

 

I peeled the tin? coating off my spare set ready to paint, still in the poly bag waiting to be done yet.

 

Hi Scotland
I peeled off the ally H's carefully then used 1200 grit wet and dry to flat the surface before spraying

Cheers, will do mine in the week and post results here
