Post by: neiljonarcus on November 02, 2009, 08:52 PM
i think it was steve "costa" asked me if i can do a bright silver ... well this is the most coursest silver we have made and it does look like aliminum in a weird course type way . then i allied the blue over the top and its better wearing than straight over polished ali

crappy old custom pedal

Used to do a lot of wheels for an Audi dealer.
Using Dupont solvent there is a code (can't remember what) for the normal alloys, just used to swap the gold pearl for white pearl, near perfect match for the big spoke RS alloys & TT nine spokes? Weirdly the white pearl knocks the metallic right down. :idiot2:

L8Z8. Substitute white pearl for gold. Not tried it with water based, but then again don't do that Audi shambles anymore :knuppel2:
