Repainting bits and pieces

Easier to use that than spray paint everywhere.

I am currently repainting the wheels. Wow, now I know why they want a grand to refurbish them.
One wheel has taken me 3 hours of prep and masking up and of course the clear coat ran on me at the end, so I have to rub it back in sections and repaint. Three to go! All done with tyres on too.
Will take a few pics to show later.
But it will look Good!

What?? Who on earth is quoting that much? 

I have had many wheels refurbed in Swindon by http://www.platinumwheelrefurb.com/ (formerley Lepsons)

x 4 wheels comes to < £300 (including the VAT).
In fact, Im helping my neighbour out by taking some wheels over there later this week. Their work is superb

I think you'll find the grand is Australian dollars

Sorry Chaps.

One wheel done now, tyre-on method.
Came up really well. Looks like new.
VHT American High temp wheel urethane based paint, with clear over base.
Glossy finish, lots of alloy flake in the sunshine.
Very factory and cost me $30.
Happy.

Three to go.
