classis rims

I dont know about any of you, but I think the little make-over I did we worth it. 1) cleaned the rims. 2) sprayed on a 2 light coats of rust conversion. 3) sprayed 2 coats of red paint. What do you think???

Re: classis rims

looks good. little tip..............nexy time you paint a rim with the tire still on. go get a cheap bottle of shampoo. and pour it into a can , brush it on the tire.... then prime or paint........when done simply wash off the shampoo.i have done this a thousand times......also for painting something with raised letters or something that is a pain to mask off.pour some elmers glue ( WHITE SCHOOL GLUE) into a can i use the top of spray bomb lids. paint the glue on what you dont want painted......when done wash the glue off with hot water...........works like a charm..hope this helps...... tony
