[All] [Generic] Volk Bronze Paint Matches?

Post by -:[KM]:- »

Has anyone found a paint to equal the bronze on these or Rotas?

I've got new wheels and have to have them in Bronze...! Where the hell can I buy some paint?

You will find it near impossible to match the colour as it's anodised and not paint. I had a set refurbished recently and had to give up and get them powdercoated black...the refurbisher couldn't even match a close colour in paint unfortunately.

Toni, the paint is for another set of wheels that I'm painting rather than a touch-up to the current ones. :wink:

Ah right. :) Well I think you won't get them looking anywhere as nice! Plus I once painted a set of wheels and the damn things just got chipped to bu88ery. Powdercoat if you can, surprisingly not that expensive.
