I have these Rota Torques that I want to paint gold...Anyone have some pictures of wheels they painted gold and where did u get the spray paint from???Thanx..

 

bumppppppppppppp

 

powder coat them. i spray painted my wheels baby blue. I sanded primered painted and clear coated. They still chip really easily. Just spend the extra buck and have them powder coated.

 

Bad pic but i used VHT hitemp gold header paint:

 

sounds like you should still be driving a civic/integra

 

at least he is a paying member of the site.

not a very nice comment to a fellow enthusiast.

 

Either powdercoat them, or use and actual gold automotive paint, and get them sprayed by a body shop. Any spray paint will eventually chip. The automotive paint professionally done would be the cheapest alternative, plus you can pick from all kinds of golds. Its also less prone to chipping since they go through the curing stages and stuff in the booth, which you cant do spray painting.

 

i agree with the powdercoat idea. it's worth the extra cash. My ap1 wheels were sprayed properly with base coat/clear coat and you it chips easily that close to the ground.

 

Owned.

 

For the love of all creatures great and small, at least get them professionally painted.
