Laguna wheels painting

[Jesse James]

I have bought some laguna wheels and I am looking to refurb and paint them. I have never done this before so other than taking my time.

So when painting the wheels what am I looking to paint? Obviously the face but what about the backs and the inner of the rim? Pointers welcome [emoji6]

They are great mate so did you do the inside same colour? How many tins of paint did you use?

 

[chris mcm]

some spacers you've got on there mate

It depends what colour they are now and what colour your painting them. If you are sticking with a similar colour then you could get away with not doing it. However if you are going to a job...

Cool well I am going with baby blue (please stick with me) then black inside

I used six cans of 300ml I have done the inside aswell plus three coats to the face but I used a yellow high build primer so the orange was hard to cover grey primer and silver alloys wouldn't need as much paint due to the colours being so close
