Do you have a picture of the wheels in their current state ?

I had ago at spraying some b3 Aero's once , not a particular hard wheel to cut your teeth on as it's mostly flat , anyway just took my time, with increasing grades of sand paper,started with couple of filler primer coats , sanding after each coat , 2 maybe 3 coats of silver (think it was Autoglym silver?) then 4 or 5 coats of laquer .. looked ok imho I would perhaps have even done more coats of laquer..? They probably lasted 4/5 yrs before I started to see blemishes on the laquer. It didn't cost me a busting lot , learnt something new , bit of self satisfaction, & it's all part of enjoying owning a classic..., I'll just re-do them again if I have to
