Put your rattle can into a bucket of really hot water for 3-5 minutes before spraying. This gets the pressure up in the can so it atomizes better ( less orange peel )

Are you repainting the whole wheel or just the sanded/primed part? It looks like you are painting just the affected area. When spraying that specific area does it not matter that some spray might get on the unaffected part of the wheel?

Been searching all over tryna find videos and great way of breaking everything down. Gonna definitely try this out on my own

You should use a sanding block when sanding the filler. You get it nice and straight that way.

Amazing!!!!! Just bought a Cadillac SRX at a decent price and the rims could use a little touchup. I can’t wait to try it. The rims on my Escalade are aftermarket and the chrome is peeling, what can I use to fix this?

Do you have to paint the entire rim if the road rash area is a small part covering less than 5 inches in length? Can you use this method and spot correct and try to blend existing paint to new paint?

Hi Buddy- I have high gloss black rims, so the duplicolor perfect match protective clear coat will make it look glossy? That would be the last thing I use after the trim/bumper paint, right? I need to know what you’ll give the high gloss look since your video was on semi-gloss. Your help is appreciated.

Just got a decent rash on one of my wheels recently and think I’ll use this method. Just wondering, would this trim and bumper paint work well on satin black wheels?

This happened o me. Both my right rims are mate black but now have bad curve rash that expose the silver metal from hitting a curve. I was tempted to just drop some money saved and just get two more rims but a repair should be cheaper.

Great job man! Motivation!!!!!!!

Great vid bro!!!!

i had some slight curb rash on my rims and did it with the wheel on the tire still. 180 grit, 400 grit, and 2000 grit. then cleaned with alcohol and just painted with flat black rustoleum. we'll see how it holds up but I barely sanded off any of the rim so I think its good on being balanced

So I just successfully did this and love the result so far. I’m putting the wheels on the tires before painting and my wheels had a fair amount of rash. I’m worried that the Bondo will chip when they’re putting the tires on. Any issues for you!

Bondo is some strong stuff. In sure you wont have an issue. Did you see my orginal how to paint your rims video? Its in the description. If you follow that method I promise the edged of the rim wont get messed up when you out new tires. Ive swapped my tires twoce on my bmw and the edges have zero sign of wear!

@UTAH100

3 жыл бұрын

When they put tires on, if you look closely, the machine first breaks the tire bead (shouldn't touch rim at all), then a longer metal arm uses leverage to get the bead over another metal part which takes the tire off. No part of the machine should ever touch the rim- ideally. You just have to make sure the operator doesn't rush. The machines are designed to work on $5k rims the same as $50 rims. It's more about the operator and the care that is taken. As extra insurance, you can simply mark the area with the filler with two pieces of blue painters tape to outline the boundary. Ask the installer to try to avoid that area. A wheel balance will be in order since filler is lighter (less dense) than the metal it attempts to replace. Bottom line- if care is taken, it should be fine.

Cool man, can you use that same filler for a Crack in the bumper?

Awesome job!!

Valuable information be careful where you park your car you don’t want curb rashes

Question. If I sand and fill then send off to be sand blasted powder coated fill it bother the filler ?

Hey instead of the bumper paint you used, can I use the gloss black spray paint instead?

Great Vid!!

Thanks

Do you have any vids of sanding the lips like for a 20 x 14 rim

I’ve got some wheels that are seriously curb rashed & chrome. I would like to keep them chrome. Can I use the same method?

My rims curb rash all around the wheels. On all 4 of them and I have no clue how you can do that (I mean its a used car anyways). But anyways, would plasti dip work the same way as spray paint with light coats? Just without the whole primer thing?

Wont the filler have a strong possibility of cracking off while mounting a tire?

So I dropped my new wheels on the face. Got small dents from the concrete, they are gloss white. Can I just dab small bits of the filler on the dents and paint over it with out too much sanding?

Hands up 🙌🙌 and subscribed 👏👏👏👍👍👍💪💪💪👌👌👌 I got this in one wheel but I don't think I'll do it untill near next tire replacement 😅 if I have the desire for wrenching, painting, whatever all car stuff, cause some time you have lot of free time but you feel desire to rest need for rest from work just sit and watch TV, drinking tea with ginger 😂😂😂
