Those look great! Very nice!
Looks pretty good, these newer style wheel are getting popular in the budget custom world because they are everywhere, people are buying them, refurbing them and then throwing a centercap or baby moons on them.
I think they look Outstanding! Great Job!

I was throwing out an old Ez-boy recliner. I noticed the bottom makes a really nice “lazy Suzan”that I flipped upside down sit the wheel on it and I can spin the wheel effortlessly while I paint.

Ah yes, 7786 Gloss Smoke Gray. Excellent color. I use this color for my snow wheels.

It's a really crisp color and stays clean nicely. Thanks for watching!

@@RiggsGarage the only one thing you want to watch out for with that color, is that it can easily lose its gloss, especially if you use it on snow wheels. I advise spraying a few light coats of clear after the Gloss Smoke Gray cures. Since you have made the effort & investment to get a spray gun, Rust-Oleum Smoke Gray does come in a non-gloss version. You can do a base-coat/ clear-coat; it will not only be glossier, but, the layers flash quicker. Single stage paint is actually more tricky to deal with than doing a base-coat/ clear-coat.

Thank you, this is my first time with a gun, so definitely not a painter 🤣
did it even take half a quart to paint all 4? I may have to do this to my scion XB.

Hey! Had a bit less than half a quart left. I did multiple coats on both sides of the 4 wheels
Good video. Seems as if the wheels would have been easier painted standing up though.

Yeah. Either way you kind of have to fight runs.
Hey what’s the dry time between coats?

5 minutes or so, maybe up to 10. But it flashed to a pretty decent state to recoat it without runs pretty quickly the way I mixed this
