I do not have the facilities to media blast, so would have to hire it done. Will use the Eastwood products for finishing the wheels, polished ribs and slots, silver background and clear. I liked that look. Never painted an alloy wheel, do I need to paint the back?

Oh, and one of them looked sort of yellow where the silver paint has worn off, perhaps an LE wheel in a previous life?
