How to chrome wheels

Zaky31 · Nov 2, 2014

Hello guys n gals
I hate my wheels. And would like to know the best way to remove the black paint to make them all alloy colour??

(Ignore the steel back wheel. Had a puncture)

Under that black paint is natural alloy which I could polish up. But how to remove the paint??

I don't have time to give step by step guide so just google, how to remove paint from aluminium wheels, loads of info there.

There are hundreds of decent silver alloys about cheap as chips , just do yourself a huge favor and put yours up for swaps for a silver set .

Loads of folks want your type wheels and in my opinion they look way way better than plain silver

If you are close to Essex and if the tyres are good. I have a set of silver ones with good road tyres on that I would swap if your tyres were equally good?

Well that could be handy. I'm in manningtree! The Landy is at my father in laws. I'll get some photos at the weekend.

Hi discodad. Did you source some pics? I'm still very undecided what to do. What I do know is I hate the two tone standard wheels I have. I just don't like the black inner with chrome ring. Thinking of going all black with the tyre brand letters painted white.
