Followed by a few of these blisters

To this pre painted

just need to be scored, then ready for the Black Metallic rattle can

Very good work Sarah :)

Snap!

No wonder walshc has helped you so much, crafty bugger.

Now his 'summer trip' to Ipswich makes sense.

(I totally would)

Kinda looks like a cock.

i dont see it

painted one yesterday, I'm proper chuffed with the results and feel so proud :-D

will get pics up as soon as i can find my usb lead

there lookin rlly sweet shame about ure finger! nice to c some1 spending the effort and time doing them alone rather than spending cash on proffesional's!!!

Thanks, i was going to do the latter until Walshy persuaded me not too, so glad i did them myself. Heres a pic of one finished, just needs a coat of laquer.

I'm really chuffed with the results and would definatly do another set.

Just the other 3 to spray now!

when using rattle can lacquer, use as much as possible.

how much is too much?

how much is too much?

Runs is too much! impressed with the final finish

that looks pretty spot on!

looks sick!

spray my steels and a set of mk1 golf alloys I've got so this has been quite informative

Thats a great job, I'm well impressed!

thanks guys, 2 painted now. But I'm working away in wales until friday so no more spraying til the weekend, then hopefully will be rolling them on the polo.

Its awesome to know I've inspired people to do their own refurb :-D

there looking awesome painted ! , id go with polomon on the laquer front and say thick coats are better than thin ! get a pic up when your all done! Ollie :)

lookin good :)

Refurbs are addictive, i've done a few now :) So much so i'm moving on to fixing whole cars (look out for my pink polo project... coming soon!)

I hate those fecking blisters .. Took me around 5 just to flat back a wheel which i intended on mirror polishing .. I gave up in the end .. It will be worth it once complete though try your best not to rush be really thurough with your work ..

Before laquering the wheels personally i would flat the paint back to 2000-3000 Grit Mop then it up with some fine polish .. I would Use 3M Purple with majority of paints ..

stealth remove those arches plx :p
