Alloy DIY refurbing/painting

[Deanno]

In work as I am an engineer but i also have the role as the spray painter.
I have done hobles for people doing alloys and what i tend to do is shot blast them then etch primer and a 2-pac top coat either battleship grey or merc white (Thats all we have in 2-pac ). most of them were alloys for my 205 rally car.

Same here, I'm lucky enough to have access to several grit blasters and sandblasters and an industrial paint spray shop. My wheels got done very early on in the build.

run them down to your local powder coaters and get them blasted and coated when thay do a batch in your colour
i have had bike wheels done in stove enamel for cheeper than the cost of the paint
