11-08-08....Wheels DONE!!



Finally, on 11-03-08, my tires arrived. I immediately took them to Rocky Mountain Motor Sports here in Loveland Colorado, and had them installed on the wheels. On Election Day I retrieved them and begun to prepare them for paint that evening. Without going into too much detail, I prepped and painted the wheels using Dupont Chromabase paint, Ford code 775302K, Ranger/Mustang Grabber Orange. I had rattle cans loaded with the color and used Dupont acrylic A-7480S Clearcoat, purchased at Ed's Paint Supply also in Loveland, for the final finish. It worked exceptionally well considering the marginal temperatures here in Colorado these days. While this is not powdercoat, I feel it came out extremely well.
