don't spray so slow or you'll put too thick a coat on and it'll drip. Make sure you're in a wind-free area, and when you spray, start off the wheel, then across the wheel, then off the other side again before you change directions. Overlap each spray and go very light for the first 2-3 coats (after primering of course). The dry time is very fast if you go light coats. The thicker you go, the longer it'll take to dry in between coats - and last thing you'd want is a wet coat trapped under another coat.

That's how I painted my wheels (before they got messed up LOL)

where exactly did you find the metalic wheel paint? I'm having a problem finding something under wheel paint. I don't want to use any metalic paint and for it to come out worse.
