The name of the thread on nastyz28 is "Z28 wheel finish"

So is this actually the correct way to paint these, with the outer (front side) of the lip Dove Gray like the back and inside of the wheels? I painted my set of date matched 'show' wheels this way years ago, but for the life of me can't remember why. I don't think I've actually seen any in person this way.

Buddy, The entire front of the wheel was painted with the Lacquer "Cast Looking" Formula.

Anybody reading this know of a PPG Jobber that can still mix the above formula with SUEDE additive..
I have a very old unopened pint can that I'm thinking would be bad ??????

LOL...............Hear I am FOUR Years later....Still asking

1) Anybody reading this know of a PPG Jobber that can still mix the above formula with SUEDE additive..

2)I have a very old unopened pint can that I'm wondering if still useable ????

3) How many wheels (one side) might be painted with ONE pint of the PPG 32961 Lacquer..........

If the can was stored correctly meaning it never froze, then I’d bet that it’s still good. I would think a pint would refinish the face of a couple sets of wheels.

You're probably going to need to reduce/thin the lacquer quite a bit prior to spraying so you should easily have enough for the wheels.

I usually start out at 1:1 reduction and see how it flows out. Nice thing about this application is that you won't be sanding between coats as you want to end up with a pebble finish.
