    Oh man... those look sweet!

    I might have you do some 5-spoke 16's for me eventually. Nowhere near that complicated though. I am unsure if I want to do a powdercoat or a polish.... Or I might do a clear over the polish!

    I think the turbines would make a comeback if they looked like that.

    I have wanting to do something in black chrome and a set of Welds would be perfect. For best effect it would be best for you to polish them all pretty first as that powder is a translucent so the more polished they are the better they look.

    Cameron I have not tried a set yet but I would think that they would hold up to curing temps just fine.

    I've tried that stuff and it is just nasty messy to use. I have some stripper that is less messy and does a nice job it just that factory wheels usually have some pretty hard coatings. I just want it so I snap my fingers and they are clean.

    Well I was gonna do the lip in chrome but could not resist doing the red. Its not perfect as I forgot to mask off the hole for the valve stem and some powder made its way thru. Nothing a little sanding and buffing won't cure. Oh well let me know what you think.

    Kenny, how hard is P/C to sand through?

    I've got an idea for some wheels and just curious if it is possible without screwing up the finish of the remaining area.

    Jesse its not too hard, you have to work a little harder than regular paint. Depending on what exactly you want done a angle grinder w/ a roloc pad works real nice.

    Would be cool to see on a Stang or Fairmont. But I think it looks pretty cool and breaks it up.

    I read you have Black Chrome Kenny. It would be towards the bottom of the list. But I'm interested if some of it gets coated.

    Not yet I'm waiting till I need several things to order at once so I don't get killed on shipping. The black chrome should be applied over real chrome or very polished aluminum to get the desired look and man it looks awesome when done right.

    I can make a 15X12 fit.

    I think I can handle the polishing part of it . Here we go again. Time to get out the ol' buffing wheel.
