Its really easy. I just got 4 cans of plasti dip http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=...:1&um=1&itbs=1 You can pick it up at lowes,homedepot,ace hardware and so on. Then I took my wheels off and cleaned them REAL good. I spent about 15-20 min on each wheel making sure the rim was as clean as possible then I let them dry cleaned them with a rag to make sure they were good and I taped them off. I did 6 coats for each wheel which is about a can per wheel. Time goes fast they say 30 min for each coat but I did it when it was pretty much dry about 15 min and that was good time because after I got to the last wheel the first one was almost ready to be sprayed again. Then after my last coat was done I let them sit for about 4-5 hrs that was in 75 degrees you will have to adjust time according to what temp you are dealing with.
