Plasti-Dipped my wheels black on my H2

Looks Great! Were your wheels chrome or just the stock aluminum? I think I am going to do this. Hate being a copycat though. My wheels are the stock aluminum. Any special prep other than a good cleaning?

My rims are the all aluminum onces. All it took was a good cleaning. Then dipped the rims and center caps separate. I was amazed at how easy it was. Took all weekend, but most of that was just dry time. You could have it done in half a day if you had all 4 wheels off at once. You should give it a shot!
Rustoleum truck bed coating is another good possibility. GREAT idea. I used a few cans of that stuff for my brush guard about a year ago and it still looks brand new to this day.

I have powerwashed them... by hand a few times so far and also through the automatic. I was a little weary at first too, but this stuff is very durable!

Looks great !! i just found this info on the plasti dip website .
"Plasti Dip remains flexible and stretchy over time, and will not crack or become brittle in extreme weather conditions. It has been tested and proven in temperatures from -30°F"
So it sounds like it might hold up to a harsh winter
