I didn't see one of those little R's with a circle, so no copyright infringement. Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery.

I want the DOW 7/dichromate coating like the version in the pic I posted.

OK I'm flattered but still broke.

I agree about the Dow but it's probably not being done these days. Hint: when the wheels are brand-new, clear-coat the centers (DupliColor is excellent-no powder coat) and they will live a long time and slowly get darker from heat (under the clear). It will also be much easier to remove brake dust from the centers-using WD40.

Can I get paid for advice at least???

What about this Gibbs penetrating oil product instead of clear coating?

http://www.roadsters.com/gibbs/

Clear coating would involve me using a spray can and while my graffiti skills are pretty good with freeway walls and overpasses, have I ever told you my sad story of the first and only model car that I built and its thumb-printed paint job?

Dunno, I never used it. Looks good.

For fear of inciting the anti-hijack nazis, start your own 'Gibbs' thread to get answers from anyone that actually used it for wheels.

Also start a 'Model Paint job' thread. I have input for you.
