I then applied two coats of the Wurth paint on top of the Duplicolor, notice how much more uniform and silver it looks compared to the Duplicolor, MUCH more like the OEM paint:




I then utilized the Duplicolor Gloss Clear paint (2 thin, topped off by a third "wet" coat) to give them their final finish. Popped in the OEM centers and am still waiting on the new metal valve stems to be delivered from SunCoast:







I've paid to have wheels professionally finished in the past, but I got to admit I was floored at how these turned out using bomb cans when these were finished, I'd say they are 90 plus percent as nice as what I dropped money on for others to do in the past. Probably $50 to $70 dollars in materials used depending upon what you may already have lying around.
