ummm ya well winter is coming and im about to put on my winter rims (some stealies 
) but during this time i want to clean and paint my rims black (my stock 7 spokes) can anyone help me with this?
heres a pic (this was shortly after my left rear break tottaly ****ed up… but all fixed now)
lol was waiting to find jons post lmao… erm i dont know shit bout brakes :S
first off dump the metallic pads and the soft rotors… wow…
unmount obviously
wash with warm water and CLR
wipe down liberally with silicone remover/ pre paint automotive degreaser
I have my way of prepping and painting however I’m sure there are some body shop people here that may have a more tried and tested method.
use castrol super clean, and scrub…does a really good job
just dont inhale
I have no personal experience, you should do a little research before doing anything.
Since you’re repainting, you should be stripping everything bare anyways. I have seen good DIY repaints utilizing aircraft-grade stripper(I’m drawing a blank as to the proper term), and the stuff basically strips the finish (paint, and the ‘polished’ look of rims), and you’re left with a bare surface.
I have no experience, so you should really google up the process!
Good luck!
