I'm sorry to bring this up again.  Can't seem to find the history threads.  
Also lost the link to the Triumph website that offers discussions.


Two years ago I sandblasted and painted my wire wheels.  Think I used 
Duplicolor wheel paint.  Now here it is again:  surface rust spots and minor 
chipping.  Car is a daily driver, albeit not in New Hampshire winters. 


Am getting to the point I might take it to a paint shop to have it 
professionally done, but even then I'm unsure to get a paint hard enough to 
withstand daily driving. 


Thoughts?
