I live in a city area with those awful 90 degree tall curbs, so it’s easy to scuff the wheels.
The photos (before and after) were on first attempt. You can add more coats to darken it, so I suggest starting with one, letting it dry, and seeing what you think. Don’t worry that when you first paint it’s super dark, that fades as it dries.
Up close you can obviously tell the area painted, but at a glance it blends well; you have to look for it from a few feet away.
Overall happy with the results! The scratches looked awful, this covers them pretty well.
PSA- the paint is pretty strong, be careful on your hands…it takes a lot to wash it off.
Highly recommended to anyone wishing to use a wheel rim repair product.
I sanded the affected area and used the light silver color on two sets of rims and they came out decent.
The paint doesn't blend in 100%, but it still does a great job at covering up the scratches.
I guess it really depends on how badly damaged the scratch or curb rash is.
Got the black gloss fix kit. Worked like a charm. The kit will last for many repairs by the way. The paint marker is quite generous and using the brush applicator makes fixing large rashes a breeze. Speaking of the breeze, i recommend doing this inside if you can or when there is no freaking pollen in the air.... :)
Paint color mached up perfect ! TOTALLLY WORTH IT !
TIPS: Color depicted is Anthracite. The instructions are limited so I advise the following: (1) Use gloves and be in a well lit and ventilated area. (2) Have a drop cloth under your work area to cover drips or spills holding the applicator. (3) The applicator sponge is trash and breaks off easily. (4) Use a q-tip if you break both applicator sponges. (5) Don't let paint get onto your tires because it looks horrible and you can't get it off even with acetone.
