1. Clean wheels
2. Take center cap off (unless you want them on)
3. Sand wheels with 400grid
4. Wipe wheels
5. Grey Primer 3-4 coats (wait about 5-10 minutes between each coat)
6. Wait about 20 minutes for primer to dry
7. Gold Plasti-kote Paint which I picked up from wallmart!, spray about 3-4 coats ( wait 5-10 minutes in between each coat)
8. Wait until paint dries, you are supposed to wait like 24 hours but I had to get going places so I only let it dry for about 8 hrs and it's fine!
