Rim color Super M

MNC · Aug 23, 2011

Due to CaCL corrosion, I need to replace the rims on my Super M so I have acquired two 12X38 rims, had them sandblasted and have one coat of brush on Rust-O-Leum primer on them. What color should I use for a finish coat? A lot of pics of Farmall rims I have seen appear to be aluminum/silver. What do you guys and gals recommend? Thanks.

I use RUST-OLEUM HAMMERED SILVER. It comes out looking almost gavanize.

Brush-applied Rustoleum "Silver Metallic" on mine. Looks just like galvanized steel unless you look really close...

If you go over to the "paint & bodywork" forum, and do a search for "farmall rims", you'll find a lot of good discussion on this topic.

Rustoleum hammered silver for the reason it has some gloss, and does look kinda like a galvanized finish. Is richer looking than pure silver.

Just don't paint in direct sunlight on hot metal. Give the paint some time to generate its crystals.

GM rally wheel color, PPG 8568. The old rims were galvanized, they were not bright.
