So i'm toying around with the idea of plasti dipping my chrome spoke wheels on my America. Anyone do this before on chrome spokes and if so did it come off easily? I've used it on other parts before like bumpers etc. Just didn't know if it would be a PITA on chrome wheels or not. Thoughts?

I know people who've done it on all kinds of car wheels... I'd imagine it would come off of chrome easier because it's so smooth, but there's a lot of nooks and crannies on the spokes n such.

Yea, I guess if I taped off the spokes and just did the rims it would be fine.

I did my rear wheel ,masked up the rims and painted the spokes and centre . I ride alot on gravel roads and so far have had no problems with it.
