Does anyone know how to repair and paint wheels???

[jackr]

So I have some serious road rash and fading on my GXP rims and need some help bring them back to life. I know that somebody had to have some experience with the same issue and knows how to deal with it. I gotta get this took care of I feel like I'm neglecting my child by having it wear shoes with no soles

looks like curb rash.

Do you know how to shoot paint?

[jackr]

Yeah I can, what about removing the scratches???

There are places that specialize in repairing wheels. I bet you can get all 4 fixed and looking new for less than $250. Google (your area) wheel repair, and then google the places that come up and see if there are any reviews on their work.

The cheapest I found was about $500 which is a little bit more than I would like to pay really....

Your rims look like mine! I've already picked up the Duplicolor silver and clear spray paint and I plan to work on them in a month or so. I'm not going to respray the whole wheel, just work on the bad spots. Materials are less than $20 so it couldn't hurt. We'll see how it turns out.

I got Duplicolor's silver wheel coating and also the clear. It should do the trick. I'm not sure when I'm going to do it yet but I'll post pics afterwards.
