u should take the rims off put a deck or cards all around the rim in between the tire and rim then just take your time with the clear coat i did mine all white yesterday

^ i painted my wheels already but i dont know if i should just wash the wheel then spray, or if i have to lightly sand or anything? i already have 2 clear coats on them. about 3 weeks old.
