Looks good for a tin job. That's how I refurb all my wheels and always get a cracking finish as I don't buy cheap paint. Hate doing multi spokes tho lol

Thanks mate. I had a chap who paints aircraft parts for a living say where did I get my wheels refurbished lol. Can't get a better compliment than that! I hear u on the multi spokes mate, I was losing the will to live after a while sanding the insides of the spokes down. I have a 6" da Sander but it was too big so bought a blue point 3" one off the snap on man and works a treat, can only do the top with it though

I do my wheels every few months with spray cans rather than paying someone Ł250-300 a time to do them. 3 cans of colour and 2 laquers enough to do my set of 5 on my merc and the finish is good enough for me and is as good if not better than some ive seen from proper wheel refurb places ! mine are 17" amg 7 spokes so not to fiddly to get in about to rub down and take a couple of hours each to finish.
