Painting aluminum wheels
I have aluminum wheels that I want to paint white. Please assist me in the steps that I need to take to accomplish this. No matter what the price or time. Thanks! I have a red car and accented in white, and I think that white rims will give my car a great affect without me buying new set of wheels.

To paint alloy wheels is easy.
Get as clean as possible or get them lightly abrasive blasted. Apply a quality two pack etch followed by a urethane primer/undercoat.top coat with two pack white. Take them to an automotive spray painter who should be able to carry out this type of work.
Good luck,
