Thoroughly clean the wheel rim to be painted with lukewarm water and detergent.

Mask the wheel rim using masking paper and masking tape.

Sand the wheel rim with P180-P240 abrasive paper; remove all loose coatings and rust using a sanding disc mounted on a drill or a wire brush.

Degrease the washed and derusted wheel rim with the in-process silicone remover PLUS 780, which effectively removes residues of grease, oil, silicones and other contaminants.

Using EPOXY PRIMER epoxy primer, protect against corrosion the areas that have been sanded through to bare metal.
