Painting TT II spokes, got some questions I'm going to paint my polished Torque Thrust II's with Duplicolor wheel paint. Being that they are polished what all is involved with prepping them for paint? Any other tips would be appreciated as well.

This is what I used:
My first wheel came out pretty good. The other 3 wheels were much better since I knew what I was doing. I'm going to redo my first wheel one weekend. Process is not that hard and actually was kinda fun. If I remember I think I did 4 light coats of paint and 2 thin coats clear or until the shine was how I wanted. Just remember to spray thin coats and let it dry in between about 30-45 minutes.
