I have found that Eastwood's Argent Silver is a "perfect" color for both
the wheels and the plastic center caps. The quality of the paint is also
excellent. It costs about $8.00 per can plus S&H. After sandblasting,
inspection and priming, expect to use 1 1/2 cans for two wheels at the rate
of two coats per wheel. Spray your final coat on the front of the wheel.
Spraying the final coat on the back of the wheel results in overspray mist
going through the holes surrounding the wheel and drying on the front of
the wheel, causing a rough, dull surface.
Good luck with your project.
