[QUOTE="det_riot, post: 850029, member: 11417"] Not sure if this would be the right section, mods feel free to move as needed. Main point. I've pretty much decided my next wheels will be hypercoated. Well I found a set on craigslist I want, only issue is that they're chrome. Where it becomes an advantage to me is the finish is pitting and the theres so curb rash so why not pick em up cheap and paint them right! :evil5: So what i'm trying to determine is what kind of paint would give me a similar finish to these: [img]http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x373/01strokersnake/IMG_20110116_145143.jpg[/img] [img]http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x373/01strokersnake/IMG_20100830_091132.jpg[/img] I love how they're silver in some light and reflect almost chromish in other light. My assumption is that it has a lot to do with the clearcoat put on it but I have no clue how to go about doing that. :dontknow: Help please! [/QUOTE]
