My mate has done loads of alloys and never has said its a "special" wheel paint and he always gets paint from them. I got paint for my car from them and it was perfect match

But does it not start flaking after a while. I always thought metal paint is best thing to use to make sure its long lasting stuff.

I have used colorwerx for body work paint loads times just not for alloys.

its exactly the same paint for use on bodywork or wheels, it won't flake aslong as you prep the wheels properly and use an etch primer
