Default Doing a little VHT Burnt Copper treatment on spokes

Using the VHT Burnt Copper metallic engine paint. Going with wide white wall tires, black rims/hubs, polished nipples and Burnt Copper on the spokes. Here's a shot of some of the spokes. Got to let the paint cure then bake them at 200 degrees for 20 min.

They are very nice. However the paint might rub off where the hub join. Good luck

After heat treating they will be pretty solid after the enamel bonds properly to the spokes.

Well I love the way it looks but not happy with the paint. Decided that I'm going to have them powder coated super chrome with a transparent copper top coat. Here is a picture of the wheel so far and the color the spokes will be powdered.


And the color the spokes will be powdered. Transparent copper over super chrome
