Does anyone know of a refurb kit, or a set of black stickers for sport wheels. I was speaking to someone on the phone today about spending hours masking off the newly applied silver on some 13" Cortina steel wheels to respray the black inserts, only for the black paint to soak through the masking tape meaning i've got to start over again. He said he thought you can get pre-cut black stickers for the job and apply over the top.

 

These are the wheels i'm on about:

I won't be painting the inserts black again. I'll repaint them silver at the weekend then they'll go up for sale. If they don't sell i'm painting them all black with a silver edge and keeping them.

I bet you used masking tape, wrong stuff, use clean edge as it is a flat tape not the rough stuff that masking is. Would it not be easier to paint the black first then mask that up then paint the silver last,I know you should do the light first but it would be a lot easier to mask the black.
