14 inch RIM repaint.

Post by Gazza01 » Sat Oct 25, 2014 10:17 am

I scored 5 x 14inch 4 stud Sunraysia rims/tyres on ebay for $120-00. Needed repainting so I sanded them back and found and old black planter container in back yard. trimmed it down to the Ouside size of the rims which measures slightly more that 14". Put in over the rim and away I went with a couple of cans of that Killrust spray from Supercheap. Was on Spec 2 for $20.00. They came up like new. [ATTACH]4486[/ATTACH]

Before and after pictures of the rims would have been nice.

I used cartridge paper to do similar when I painted my rims
