Well I bought some used rims that were in really rough shape. 17x7 so I said what the heck. I sanded them all down with power tools and stuff. Got down the the bare aluminum. The relective surface is not polished aluminum it it crappy chromish paint that corroded after 2 years (shitty finish).
Once they were all sanded I primed them with etching primer and waited a week or so... then I painted them with alot of metalic silver wheel paint. After that ther are lots of coats of clear for that portecive glaze.
I probably put 20+ hours into these things to say a couple humdred bucks. LOL I dont know if ill do it again but it turned out.
Here is a bunc of pictures in series from when i got them to when i put new tires on them - Azenis ST-115 225/45/17. YAY
