No, my first black coat was about 75% coverage, a little more than what they recommend. I did allow the coats to dry about 12-15 mins. Between coats, but again they were wet.

Thanks

@ Axbanks, I have not found this to be the case.. it came off very easiy.. if not, use some WD40 and it slides off.

@ GaPorsche, thanks for the info. I'm pretty sure I went to thin on Silver Metalizer coat. No big deal as it doesn't look bag from 2-3 feet away.

I don't see my post from your last question about the wet coats. I posted it from my iphone and it shows there, but not on my laptop. Anyway, here it is again....

The initial black coats as follows, first coat was about 75% coverage which is a bit more than what they recommend. The following three coats of black were wet, but with 12-15mins between coats. The last two coats of the grey metalizer was as wet as I could do.

Ok, here are some pics with the wheels on the car, hope you like them. This is my MINT 84' 944 with only 54K miles, perfect paint and black leather interior, love this car. Drives like a dream, handles so well and nice tork.

thanks

GaPorsche, I see your post, it's post number 14.

It looks much darker in these last pics. Thanks for sharing. That confirms I went the right route for what I wanted.

Wow. The wheels look great. Thinking of doing my entire car that way, but unsure if it's a good idea. But If I can get results like those wheels I may consider it.

I had not heard about using WD40. I give that a try to remove some remaining plastidip on some s\pots of my car.

GaPorsche, The wheels look great. Are you going to mask the crests and do the center caps. I think your wheels would look a lot more finished if you did.

AltVelo

WD40 works very well.

About painting the crests, it's so easy with dip.. no need to mask.. just peel off the center and it separates perfectly.

GaPorsche

Yeah, I thought about the center caps being the same as the wheels, I even did them before the wheels. I may go back and do them, the wife like the silver contract with the darker wheels.

thanks
