Hey Guys!
I'm hoping to be picking up a set of monoblocks very soon (if all works out) and was hoping if I could get some help in finding the best bright light silver spray paint I could use for these. I'm going to be priming, painting, and clear coating since they need new paint pretty badly, and I haven't had much luck in finding a color that was the closest to what they originally came in. I've heard of Wurth Silver Spray paint but im not sure how bright it is, and I might go with that but I'm looking for other options.
Looking for a color like this : https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1507/...b54851e8_c.jpg
Thanks!

Wutth silver is pretty bright. Was a perfect match on mid 90s BBs wheels... Which were very close in shade (if not exact) to same Era schnitzer

I actually don't anymore... But here's what I did..
I sanded down the scratches
Filled gouges with metal putty/filler.
Sanded everything down again... Feathered the repair areas into non damaged areas.
Shot wutth self etching metal primer... Did three coats.
Sanded again....
Shot 4 coats of Wurth wheel silver. I think I got mine at Bav Auto.
Then shot clear over it all...
I no longer have the computer where I had pix of this repair... And I don't have the car anymore. Sorry.
Good luck
