Couple of questions. Im painting/re-furbing some alloys, they were originally professionally painted by a bodyshop white then sprayed with clear coat.
1. Will cellulose paint react with the body shops paint??? if so what do i do to overcome this
2. I will be painting the wheels in the same colour paint as my car (bianca white) this dosnt require a clear coat cos its non metallic so how do i prep the surface for clear coat, dont want it peeling but was a super shiney finish. Is there such thing as white metallic???
3. Do i need to treat any bear metal or because its alloy can i paint stright on to it

rub it all down, and clean it with white spirits. then paint it with primer, then white.... then rub it down so its smooth and paint it with laquer if you want it super shiney!


thats what i would do anyway
