If he didn't tell you he plasti-dipped it & posted this same picture in the "Paint/Powdercoat" section. You wouldn't know the difference..

I don't like using the extreme colors like neon pink for wheels. But black on yellow looks GREAT.

& dipping it is affordable, and it gives us something to do on the weekends without having to overspend$$$ at a body shop for relatively the same thing.

& you can peel it off.

If anything its, "Fried RICER". Much more flavor and creativity.

How many coats did you use? I just did my wheels 2 weeks ago and they've held up perfectly.

I used about 6 on each wheel, it had been quite cold over night despite the morning sun so maybe that was the problem?

Odd, I used about 5 coats and let it dry for 4 hours before putting the tires back on. I've noticed that cold and humidity really affect it during the application phase as well as not getting the rims completely clean before applying.
