FAQs
Can this paint be used on plastic hubcaps?
Yes, it is designed for use on both steel and light metal wheel components, including hubcaps.
How many wheels can I cover with one 500ml can?
The product covers 4-5 square meters, which is typically sufficient for a standard set of four automotive wheels.
Does this paint require a clear coat?
PMA Wheel Paint is designed to provide a durable high-gloss finish on its own, though a clear coat can be added for additional depth.
What is the recommended drying time?
The paint is fast-drying, but it is recommended to let it cure fully for 24 hours before subjecting the wheels to road conditions.
Is the finish resistant to brake dust?
Yes, the formula is engineered to be wear-resistant and provides protection against the harsh environment wheels face, including brake dust.
Troubleshooting
Paint is running or sagging
You are applying too much paint in one spot; use lighter, more frequent passes instead of one heavy coat.
Poor adhesion or flaking
The surface was likely not cleaned or degreased properly before application; ensure all oils are removed.
Rough or grainy finish
Holding the can too far away causes the paint to partially dry before hitting the surface; move closer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before use, ensure the wheel rim is completely clean, dry, and free of rust or flaking old paint. Sanding the surface with fine-grit sandpaper can improve adhesion significantly. Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least two minutes before spraying to ensure the acrylic pigments are fully mixed. For safety, always apply in a well-ventilated area or outdoors while wearing protective gloves and a respirator mask. To maintain the finish, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners; standard automotive wheel cleaners are compatible with this cured acrylic coating. If the nozzle clogs during use, turn the can upside down and spray briefly until only propellant comes out to clear the feed tube.
