I’ve decided it’s high time I address the wheels. The powder coating has chipped away from around all the lug nuts & rocks have taken off more around the edges of the rims. I also don’t like the hi-gloss finish. I want to paint them & need to know the best method that doesn’t involve getting them sandblasted first? I don’t want to spend a ton of money on this project because in all likelihood they’ll still get some beatings going forward & I want to be able to touch it up as needed. Is there a way to do this myself with decent results? What type of tool should I use to scuff it up well enough, preferably something I can attach to my drill, I've read that primer/paint won't stick to powder coating unless it's sanded, but you can see all the tight spaces & rivet looking things on these wheels that I won't be able to get to with sandpaper. Also, what type of primer & paint is best to go over it when it’s prepped?
