Smooth Wheel Covers Well kinda convex

Quick shot I took the other night of the wheel cover after I did a bit of sanding and spread a second layer of resin on:

Today I mounted them to the car and did some wet sanding:

Wanted to smooth out some of the high spots and reduce the "suede look" to give them a more finished appearance. I needed to get the garage cleaned up and reorganized for other projects, so I'm just going to run them on the car like this for the week; next weekend I will remove them and give them another shot of primer. They look pretty good in grey, so I'm debating over whether to spray them in a clearcoat after I'm done priming, shoot them grey, or maybe use a dull silver on them.

...a silver base coat topped by a clear "sealer" coat = OEM

Now there's food for thought! I will have to look into that one, thanks for the info!

Nice!

Thanks! I ended up just clearcoating them, and left it at that. I get some looks from people when they see it on the road, not to mention the when they hear it running :-)

sounds like a really easy project. Thanks for the info. Maybe I can stretch a shirt over a boattail frame.... lol
