Wheel paint - Ben - 08-01-2013

I want to paint some wheels in a dark silver/grey/anthracite colour. Last time I painted wheels it cost me £50 for primer, paint and then laquor, and then I had the hassle of doing all three coats.

So I thought I'd use hammerite like Dum-Dum did, but they don't do the right colour. The closest they do is silver and ideally I'd like darker.

Anyone know of any direct to metal paints which might have more colours?

Or does anyone know if you can use paint like this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E-TECH-GUNMETAL-GREY-ALLOY-WHEEL-400ML-SPRAY-PAINT-AERSOL-ANTHRACITE-/140744617959?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item20c5086fe7 - without using primer or laquor?

Why not get some silver and black hammerite and mix them Wink

mix the colours as said you should be able to get to any colour
just remenber to mix enough for all your wheels as you will never match a self mix colour for touching up
