So I picked up some Enkei RPF1 wheels for some track/autocross wheels for my Focus ST. Got em at a good deal but the guy had em powdercoated in a we'll say not so desirable color. I have the ablility to paint em, as a matter of fact I have a quart of PPG magnetic metallic that matches my car. What kind of prep work do I need to do before shooting?
