Thanks. I dipped my Buick Century's wheels first. I'm glad I did because I learned a couple things that helped the second time. The cans of Pasti Dip can't be cold or the dip coagulates and clumps up. If taking the wheels off like I did, wait until it cures (a day or so at 60ish deg F) before putting the wheels back on or be extremely careful; I tore the dip in a few spots when putting the lugs on because I didn't wait long enough and scraped a couple spots with a socket. Make sure to get good coverage on the edge of the wheel. Getting a respirator is also a good call.
