Yeah definitely. I've found that the glossifier works well on small areas like emblems and badges, but not so well on large areas. I tried to do my roof with the glossifier, but it didn't come out right no matter how much glossifier I put on it. I think you should be fine with the wheels though.
Here's some pics of my emblems with 4-5 coats of the glossifier so you can get an idea of how glossy it might get. You can just keep adding coats of the glossifier until you're happy with how it looks. |

No problem. Actually I'm glad you asked because while on the website to give you the link I actually bought this. Should help make my wheels look clean for once and not dusty.

Damn. I had planned on painting the NISMO on the wheel in black and the "O" in red. I guess I'll scratch that idea and just paint the whole NISMO in black. The tops of my lugs might be red tho

Just a word of caution, plasti dip on the lugs and the area surrounding them is prone to getting taken off when you take the lug nuts off and put them back on.

Idk, i'm playing it by ear to be honest. If it looks stupid, I'll just remove the color. I've been waiting for someone to make stock style lugs, but colored!!!!

A way to get around of the red staining anything pink you dont want ummm pink is to put down a base coat of the regular black plasti dip and then put the red on top of it. Only thing is it will probably take a couple more coats. Just a thought.
