need some tips on coating two colors on one part

[Guest]

I want to coat a set of rims 2 colors, one side pink one side yellow, I tries to do a two tone color once before but failed miserably. How do i mask off what is already coated?

Thanks Mike

I usually shoot the rim 1 color , then mask the wheel with aluminum foil and tape the center of the wheel for a clean line. Most of the time i will also clear the entire wheel to smooth it out.

I was thinking car rim, masking that on a motorcycle rim is not fun.Hope it only has a few big spokes,good luck with that!

It could be worse it could be wire spoke rims.
