Bronze wheel paint?

[kiakarimi]

I posted this in the non-performance but got no response. Duplicolor makes wheel coating paint, but they don't have a bronze. Does anyone know of a bronze i can use on my wheels?

Treasures Gold - Pewter (wax style paste). It can be found at Arts an Crafts stores IE- Micheals. It costs about $4.00 a bottle. It's the exact same color as the rota bronze rims.

Make sure its the pewter color -3070

Nice! But what is a "wax style paste"? Is it still in a spray bottle? Do you think i'll have to worry about it chipping easily? Because from what i understand the duplicolor stuff is made to take alot of abuse. Is that the color you have on your wheels in your gallery?

The paint holds up fine. It comes in a regular spray paint can. No that’s not the color on my car in my gal. I did this when i had some rota c8's in bronze that got a little scratch and i use that paint to touch them up. Also my friend with a GSR painted his rims with the same paint and it looks sweet.

Awesome thanks for the advice! You wouldn't happen to have a pic of your friends car with the paint would you?
