alloy wheel refurb?

"has anyone done this? There are loads of them on ebay say easy to do. Keep getting told there not? I think it looks easy but the spraying I never sprayed a thing in my life any tips? I have scuffed chrome alloys and my sig is what i want them to look like No matter what im gona order the stuff and do this I have waited weeks and been a fairy about dooing this anyone know what to order and whats the best advice on doing this? pluss man thats alot of? lol "

Where abouts are you? Im looking to get mine done when times comes to sell them but can't be arsed to fork out a ton on something im getting rid of.

im in manchester mate ou are looking like a 10 spot of ebay then the paint cost and lacker looks about 30 notes for all 4 whees but are u brave enough to do it? Same dilema as me in a way mate

"this is my wheels unscuffed £595 quid without tires and i have fooked them up. I must restore mine as ill never be able to throw that money at some new ones and i love them lol"

"ive refurb my own alloys before. helped my cousin spray his white. sanded filled primed colored laqured. cost about £40 in total and about a weeks work. but they looked mint. just remember to let them dry for about 4 or 5 days. to make sure its dry properly as you dont want brake dust eating them and dont over do it with the paint less is better as you can always add more. rather than having to sand em again if u add too much. just give it light sweets left to right releasing the spray thing every time you stop the can.. im sure someone will say im wrong but its how i did it and they looked spot on after no chips or blobs or nowt"

"but dont rush it if your doing it on your own take time sanding and filling and let it set properly. then do a coat of paint at a time and give it plenty of time to dry properly with each coat. add primer leave it over night to dry then colour leave that over night etc ect"
