Painted Rims

[Plakster]

Well, yesturday, while i was installing my new grill and the lip so i just painted my rims,

I did all the procedures apply 3 layers of paint (gray) and 3 of clear and I notice that my rims dont shine...

The color looks opaque, what should i do, to get it more shinny?

Wait about 3-4 weeks, let the paint really bake on the rims and then use some car polish to shine them up and see if that makes a difference.

it really depends on the type of paint used.using the right kind of paint, using a good amount of clear coat and allowing it to dry properly makes all the difference.
