Hello from Atlanta, Ga. Has anyone prepped and then silver repainted the Vanagon OEM steel wheels? Before new tires are installed, I would like to spruce up one of our '81's with nice original looking silver repainted wheels. Do they need to be completely sand blasted and professionally repainted? Is this prepping something I can do "at home, in my spare time..." ? Most important, will the silver finish last and resist scratches like the original? IT! Regards, Mike Nichols 2--'81's |
