Spraying Alloys

[Tom-x]

I want to spray my alloys black on my fiesta, I've been looking at Hammerite products, they have primer and lacquer in them? Wondering if anyone has used it or anything similar?

you will get better results if you get them powder coated, i know that doesnt answer your question but if you want a long lasting finish do it the best way.

just take them to a local body shop!

Hi Tom-x, I am currently refurbing my alloys and considered Hammerite but would not recommend it for the wheels, stuff just doesnt want to lay right and doesnt like primers etc. Better off looking at decent primer, specialist alloy paint and lacquers. If you can afford it then a pro refurb is good, got a quote for mine of around 300 but would loose wheels for 4 days.
Good luck.

Iv been quoted £200 for a professional powder coating so going to have them gloss black within 2 weeks
