That looks kinda neat, actually. I've never seen that look on wheels before. How durable has the finish been? Seems you've had them on for some time now.

well i had black powdercoated escalade wheels on the truck for a while. The first time i saw grandpaw roll up next to me with black wheels, i knew i had to change it up and do something different. nothing against grandpaws The finish has been very durable, its just like if you were to paint them normally. You use automotive finish products. So, as long as you take care of them, they will stay nice.

yeah, i dont know why more people dont know about it? they have thousands of different patterns. You can do it to anything that you can dip into water. From guns to Vibrators People are using this stuff to do the crown mouldings in their homes. Alot cheaper to hydro-image than it is to try and get marble mouldings.
