Who would have thought that painting your rims?"once a task reserved for professionals?"could be done right at home? After researching various methods, I decided to tackle my Integra's winter rims this year, and I was thrilled with the outcome.
Materials Needed
First, you’ll need quality paint. I used Duplicolor wheel paint for its variety and quality, available in white, gunmetal, classic silver, and bronze. I went with gunmetal, maintaining the original polished look of the rim’s lip.
Preparing Your Rims
After selecting your color and purchasing your paint, you’re ready to begin. The first crucial step is sanding the rims. This roughens the surface, allowing the paint to adhere better. I opted not to strip all the original paint since my rims had no damage. Instead, I used 300 grit sandpaper for an even surface, which worked perfectly.
Cleaning and Masking
Once sanded, thoroughly clean the rims to remove any sanding dust?"this ensures the paint will stick properly. Next, mask off the tires with newspaper and masking tape to prevent any unwanted paint on them. I also protected the rim's lip and the air valve with tape.
Painting Process
After the rims are dry and properly masked, lay down some newspaper as a base to catch excess paint and prevent mess. Then, apply the first coat of paint. Allow it to dry completely. The next day, admire your handiwork and enjoy your newly transformed rims.
By following these steps, you can give your rims a professional look without leaving your garage. Happy painting!
