Default Re: 69 rally wheel paint formula with greenish hue

IMO, KURT S is correct! I recently refinished 6 original YH wheels, and when i glass beaded them i found blobs of black paint as though they were dipped. These blobs appeared to be runs from dipping. No grey primer of any kind was ever found, just black.
I used PPG 8568 Argent silver and then a Matte clear 20%. I also used Sickens rally black on the wheels first. They look MINT, not too shiny, and the colour is great.
I personaly dont like using rattle cans, as the paint does not stand up that well, probably from a lack of hardeners or catalysts etc.
I think that the green hue is for 67 and earlier corvette rallys.
Hope this helps. Mike.
