Nice... I just wanted a cheap fix, overall this was 109, but now that I’m done I’ll be sending the 70$ spray gun back to amazon as “defective “ 😝 so only about 35$

heh just realized you already painted yours. all good. at the end of the day its better than it was before. that was my thinking with my winter wheels.

though when i was gearing up to do it a second time, i didnt feel like spending the time again just to have them look shabby again in 1 year. so i just bit the bullet and spent the money.

either way, its a step in the right direction

good job

They really just had to charge me to sandblast the oem chrome off because apparently that’s a bear.

If anyone is in the CT area I can hook you up!

I live in CT and I'm interested in refinishing my wheels. Please let me know who did the work for you.
