I was wondering if anyone has any experience / tips / suggestions for re painting the "grey" channels on styled steel wheels. I dont know if this is something I can do, or something I should have professionally done. My grey paint has some chipping here and there, and some rust is starting to form. Can anyone post some advice,tips,tricks etc?

*** also which spray to use, and primers, strippers etc......... ***

ANY help is appreciated.

SS wheels

Crow,
I did mine last year. Mine were 69 ss wheels, but the process should be similar. You can get the 68 paint from Mustangs Unlimited. They have the paint for 68's but not 69. Follow the attached link for pics of my wheel repaint. If you have eny more questions, let me know.

Paul, very nice job.

The 67/68 are chrome spokes, and rims, so you will have to mask the spokes in order to paint inside. Use a scotch brite pad to scuffin' up the paint. Use the finest you can find. Mask up everything you dont want painted, then lay down a few coats of self etching primer, then spray color. Take your time and breaks in between the rims. It will turn out great, just be patient. Good luck
