Wheel Paint

    I'm wanting to do a little touch up on an SLR rim and wondering if anyone has found a rattle can that is a close match for color and sheen. I've tried searching but couldn't find the answer. I did see that Funinthesun asked a similar question about 15wheels, don't know if he found a match or not. Perhaps the all knowing Painter could chime in. Anyone? Any help is appreciated

    I'd thought about finding some spray paint to match my Base 2015 wheels, but after I bought a set of painted wheels (the previous owner had paid someone to paint them) they lost paint just rubbing against the trailer bed during the ride home. As a result, I've been thinking about using a local powder-coater.

    I never found a match locally, but repainting all 3 wheels would still be cheaper than powder=coating them.

    since the brake fluid just ruined my back wheel .....is the factory black....paint or powder coating? If it’s paint it looks like semi gloss Rattle can black......

    If all you're doing is touching up rock chips or small scratches, use M-NU Emblem Refinisher. It's what Soldiers use to touch up the brass buttons on their field gear and it works great!

    Needing to touch up a wheel repair. At least it's on the back side but still hope to get a good match

    For the black I just use satin black spray paint. Spray a little in the paint can cap and use a tooth pick that has been cut off and crushed on one end or a small art paint brush.

    Sure, M-NU is flat black, like the wheels on my SLR and is more durable than finger nail polish. I can hardly tell where the rock chip was.

    Bigger spot than that. Was hoping someone had a brand that was close
