Pics soon.

Picked up a set of 98 cobras. They needed refinished. They are currently stripped . Gonna etch prime then filler prime before paint and clear.

Any advice on getting the surface smooth? I figured just prime and sets and till smooth

That looks like it came out good. What type paint did you use?

If I were to do it again I'd try to find a place to sand blast them. But if the wheels don't need stripped it's a easy process. I used parts store wheel paint. I'll check the brand in a bit.
