Doug. May I ask what the colour is called or batch numbers are for the red/brown for the inner wheel rim ;-).

I tried but they don't want to hand out the mixing formula. They can make and send paint anywhere around Australia.

I can spray a sample and send to you if that helps. I got a litre can and a spray pack for each colour.

Doug, I am in the process of restoring some S rims.
Can you supply the details / supplier of the paint you used?
Thanks

None of the spray cans have the formula listed so best to contact Milsomes direct. They should have it on file.

Hi Doug,
Thanks for pointing us towards your build thread.
An excellent job on the car, as well as the thread.
Do you recall how many cans you went through to do the rims - 5 or 10 of them?

I think two of each did the job on five rims, plus one can of clear coat for the silver side.
