Appropriate Finish for Wheels

[Ian Williams]

Good Automotive Paint supplier should be able to help you Andrew, I use Car Colours in Auckland, they have black primer on the shelf, not much help to you in the UK I know. Most paint systems would appear to be available as full gloss and matt, mixing them gives you a satin finish, I can simply specify the % gloss I require when ordering the paint. Some of the paint systems are more glossy than others but in general 80 to 90% seems to work for my eye, Car Colours will do me a small sample pot so I can spray a test panel.
