I am debating painting my winter rims bronze, but as of now I have had no luck finding bronze in a rattle can. What I am looking for: 1. pics of your bronze wheels if its a red car even better since that what I have. B: what brand of paint did you use and what the color called bronze or something else? 3. Where did you get the paint at? my local napa had a small selection. thanks, Bill
I tested a can of duplicolor bronze a few years back... Looked pretty damn good but I didn't like it against black so I didn't go through with it. I'm sure it would look fantastic on your forester tho. Pretty sure I picked it up a checkers (oreilly's). It was this one: http://www.jegs.com/i/Duplicolor/31...7dd-8f42da06fd7f&sendroikwd=Duplicolor+HWP105
I may have to make a run to one of those tomorrow then... Thanks sheen, that is what I have found now that I actually sat down and did some internet searching.... but hey I figured this would yield good results as well.
17's? Tires on I typically use 1-2 cans per wheel. I'd say start with 6. Tires off it's 2 cans per wheel.
Here is the duplicolor bronze. It is alittle bit dark for me, but it does look nice. Check RS25.com for pics of RS 5 and 6 spoke wheels painted bronze, since tons of people have done it over there. The amount of paint depends on how much prep work you do and what color the wheels were before. My wheels were white so it only took me 2 cans of Duplicolor gold and 2 cans of clear to do all 4.
I am going tomorrow to find some duplicolor bronze, and the tires are on... so I will buy 6 cans... thanks everyone.
