Ok so here's a pic of my bike, not the best, but I'm at the office so I had to use one I already posted.
I'm putting new tires on her before the season and I figured while I have the wheels off I might as well paint them. I'm thinking flat black would look waaaaay better than white, not to mention the hassle of keeping white wheels clean.
Here is my thought process on painting them. Clean them super good..no dirt/grease. Scratch the surface up with some sandpaper, couple coats of rattlecan primer, and a few coats of rattlecan flat black. Baddabing baddaboom..new wheels.
Does this process sound like it would work? I don't want the damn paint peeling off after I put the wheels back on. Also any alternative suggestions for colors and/or photoshop jobs are welcome! :waytogo:
