DIY- Spray Rims - WHITE

[simefly]

no problem dude... next time when i am around, i can show you how its done but patience and lots of trial and error will make it perfect.

The other thing is to get a good nozzle for your RM5 spray can. That cant be clogged so fast and sprays out evenly.

maybe u din read properly...
din i write 1 spray can 4 2 rims....
thin is for clear coat only...

hahaha .. dun shoot me dude... i was just adding to your comments not against it. I have met lotsa people who like to finish things really fast with just one coat so it was just another tip. :)

actually u should use better paint..those got diamond? or star ....2/3 star
my fren also use this paint to his sport rim..and after 1 month, hahaha..al become yellowish..he did put the clear coat but the result is the same..so pls dun save RM 30 and waste ur time to respray

 

[partyJOE]

i agree better paint giv better result... u can always get better paint but u can never get better clear coat... its always the normal rm5 1 available....
those clear coats r the 1 which turn the rims yellow...
so its best to use better paint n not use any clear cot
im saying this tru my experience...

 

[simefly]

Not that bad la... 2-in-1, you can never get bored with the colour of your rims. One minute white, then yellow.... whats next? Orange??? ....kidding...

On a serious note, if you actually clean the rims thoroughly with thinner or petrol prior to spraying and also spray it very lightly and allow it to dry before you put on the 2nd,3rd,4th coat, chances of it getting yellow would be slimmer as well.

The discolouration is mainly caused by oxidisation and other pollutants...
