I checked this out for reference. http://www.ehow.com/how_7849481_paint-chrome-wheels-black.htm Watched videos too. I'm actually thinking abt painting rims or just getting new ones.

Yeah I would get news ones but I just drive it to work I have a 2500 dodge for a daily driver. Just didn't know about painting wheels that aren't steel

For chrome rims I would do sandblasting, etching, sealing and painting.

No need to sandblast or etch chrome with the plastic coat paints. They are peelable but stick great on a smooth surface without all the prep work. We did my sons rims and chrome bumpers after we saw how well it sticks and lasts on a friends truck.
