Just picked up some 18" Work VS KF rims with stainless lip and painted silver spokes, except ive noticed that paint is chipping and coming off of the spokes..
Now..
I want to know, what sort of shops repaint these? is it easy to do? expensive?
Can i polish them instead of painting them? Because i would prefer the polished look over the painted.
Any help is greatly greatly appreciated

 

around here they charge $80 to $150 per wheel for refinishing. depends on size and what you want to do.

 

Not sure exactly what those wheels look like but I spray painted my wheels over the weekend and it was actually very easy. As long as you take your time prepping them it is a painless project and mine came out GREAT!

 

and here is the finished project

 

really? u need a few more coats as you can see the areas that STILL need paint

 

Sorry but it looks horrible. if its for daily use or beater wheels then

but if this is your idea of FINISH...

Yeah, thats exactly what he wants to do. Do a *****ty rattle can job on a multipiece work rim

If you really think that came out "GREAT" then you need to raise your standards. It looks like there was no prep at all. It looks like it was just rattle can sprayed over the original paint without sanding, prime or clear coat.
