Here we go, got a little scrape on my wheel. Not sure where it came from but let's deal with it. First we need to fill it with something that turns as hard as steel. Quicksteel is the solution I use. Gets rock hard, exactly what I'm looking for. Next, clean the wheel and sand the scrape a bit. Fill it with the Quicksteel and sand it down until it's smooth to the touch. Now let's paint. I used some paint and a Q-Tip. Or you can just spray it. Make sure you clear coat it and done.

But, we're not done yet. Now we're going to put some colorized plastic dip from www.dipyourcar.com on. Just follow the instruction and make sure the layers of paint are thick enough. Done. To fully cure, let dry for 48 hours. However, I mounted my wheels just an hour after painting and drove with them the very next day.

It couldn't be easier. Head over the www.dipyourcar.com and pick your colors.

*** 4 month update: So I've been riding on these wheels for 4 months now. I had a flat a couple months ago. When I took it to the tire shop they had to take the tire off. They scuffed the edge of the wheel a little bit but when I got home I just added another couple layers of the plastidip that I had left over and it looks great. The only thing is that when they touched the wheel with the dirty gloves, they put some dirty spots in the middle of the wheel that will not wash out. Again, I painted over it and it looks great. I will redo my wheels in a slightly lighter color maybe later this year. Just love this stuff. :)

Thank you for watching :)
