Repainting Rims?

[DGraber460 at aol.com]

I once had a set of Porsche phone dials that needed renewing. The method I 
landed on was blasting with walnut shells by a professional stripping shop. 
The shells clean very well and do _no_ damage to the metal. I painted them 
myself, and got lucky and had pretty good results. I can't remember exactly 
what I used for paint, but I think it was Acrylic enamel, sprayed on with a 
bargain copy of a Binks 7 gun. I hosed down the floor in the garage to 
eliminate dust, and shot them on a calm day with the doors closed and mask.
