Morris Minor Owners Club

I originally hand painted them with smooth silver and they looked great! But I can't be done with so much rubbing down and may just do use the spray as you suggested.

have them properly blasted and powder coated

, too much ££££££, I did enquire about that at the local powder coating / blasting place but they wanted £30 a wheel, thats almost a hundred quid, plus i'd have to get the tyres removed, then put back on and rebalanced.

wow that seems a lot, i know a guy that will do them for £18.00 a wheel, with or without tyres.
i do him so maybe he does me a favour.

I could have said (and looked like less of a cheapskate), I'm keeping to paint as its more original

Your located on the southcoast though.. There's a guy round here who my dad knows.. or at least he says he does so i'l see what he can do for me. Probably will go for white too

Well I invested in a can of hammerite smooth silver and the colours just right, unlike 5 wheel silver, far too shiny. I forgot what a pain hammerite is to spray, the nozzle is constantly blocking up....have to keep a pin and thinners to hand.
