Full Dip Senta wheels
Taken the studs out which was very easy, was afraid the heads could break off cause they've been in there for 13 years.
Took it in to the house to warm up, tomorrow will heat the garage an hour before I start.
Only bought one can Antricit grey metallic and one can of glosifier for testing if I like it!:-)
Any tips and tricks are welcome!:-)

I recommend painting (includes Plasti-Dip, powder coat, etc.) the inner barrel black. The contrast makes the front surface really stand out and hides the brake dust. That's how I had my Selena wheels refurbished. I also ceramic coated them to make them easier to clean, and that seems to work well .

I plasti dipped mine 15 months ago, they still look great... Do a coat on the backside first before doing frontside... I did mine laying flat on the ground with room to walk all the way around them so each coat was from a different angle.... There are plenty of videos on plastidip.com.... the most important thing is to have the wheel as clean as possible...

That didn't go well!
The metallic grey looked pretty good even though I had some imperfections.
But when the glossifier came on it looked like sh#t. It didn't want to "float out". It looks like it is another colour but it's the lighting above wasn't on in the other picture.
I like the matt colour and will order 4 cans. Will not use glossifier for now. :-)
Think it will look good with the shiny studs.
BTW, it was easy peeling it off! :-D
