Bill:
I bought a high quality rattle can from an autobody supply store for about
$8.  Color was called "Argent Silver."  I top coated with Eastwood's clear
coat (may have been called Nyalac, but I think they changed the name).
Looks good.  Did 8 wheels with 1 can.

I was finishing up painting some rostyle rims today and I decide to
apply a 
coat of Krylon "Crystal Clear Acrylic Gloss" on top of the Krylon
Aluminum. 
It turned a shinny sliver into a battleship grey or brushed aluminum.
Not 
quite what I planned. I can't wait to try this stuff on the nice shinny 
black and see what happens. Or maybe I will try a can of the Rustolem
shinny 
clear. I will not blast off what every I wind up with. 

What have you folks used and what do you like or dislike?
