The other day, while stopped at a traffic light, this guy was looking at my front wheel and I am wondering what the heck he is looking at. So first opportunity I looked at my wheels and this is what I saw:
I realized I needed to do something with the Wheel Bolts, they look terrible. I thought about replacing all the bolts but a good friend of mine (owner of German Parts and Restoration) recommended I get some paint instead… So I did.
I found this wheel paint at Pep Boys; it’s “Track Tested” so it must be real good right? Paint color is: HWP 101 Silver
Even after removing the bolts and cleaning them they looked rough.
I sprayed a thin coat of the paint on the head of the bolt; the paint dried extremely fast, surprisingly fast, and was hard as nails.
I used a zip-lock back over the bolt head during installation, this works great.
End results look great.
This task did not take long, I did not jack-up the Jägermobile, I just removed a couple bolts at time, and since the paint dries so quickly there was very little waiting for the paint to dry.
