Can anyone recommend FB paint

[Joe_FBHolden]

Hi, I'm currently attempting to fix up a daily driver set of FB hubcap centre caps. I'm a bit stuck on what type of black paint to use? Where's the best place to buy it? I understand satin black is used but tried using my sample pot of acrylic black but no good.

All ok, I picked up some black enamel paint

Here's a pic of the final product, two coats of gloss black and careful marking and drilling of my daily driver hubcaps here it is.

Thanks Tim, I also picked up my spares from the electroplaters an powdercoaters last week.

Look really good, can you tell me what the powdercoater charged per rim?

I have a quote locally of around$140 sandblasted and powder coated, which I think is to dear.

Hey Matt, sandblasting the rims were around $150 for a set of four and the powder coating was around the same price $150-$160. Both done at separate premises. So around $300 all up. I'm happy with the result as the rims were pretty bad to start with

Thanks, I'm finding it hard to find a set of rims for my FB. A guy dropped me three off the other day but they are very rusty.

Was going to buy a set of new Rares ones but the hub caps falling off thing puts me off.

But yours turned out great.

Thanks Matt, if I see any rims in good condition going for cheap I'll let you know. I'm in Canberra by the way but travel to Sydney about once a fortnight if it helps
