Want to customize your wheels with paint? Then look no further as I go through step by step on how to paint your wheels and trust me, they look cool by the time you're done. So let's get started, just follow the steps below to begin.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Stuff you are going to need are a wheel(s), safety glasses, paint mask, 3 inch wire cup brush, sand paper, paint thinner, a rag, primer, and wheel paint.

  2. Step 2

    Get your cup brush and mount it on your drill. Pass the cup brush all over the wheel. Wear your safety glasses as you are doing this.

  3. Step 3

    Now hand sand the sharp edges you missed with the cup brush. Use sand paper to do this.

  4. Step 4

    Now wipe down the surface of the wheel with paint thinner. Make sure to get all areas of the wheel. Wear your paint mask as you do this.

  5. Step 5

    Apply primer to the sanded surface of the wheel. Let it sit for about thirty minutes.
