Yellow to Blue??? Can I do it?

[JonBoy]

I have some Yellow rims that I want to replace with white ones but I do not have the money. What collors can I make my yellow rims other than black? I would like them blue but not sure how that would turn out and to get blue what collor do I need?

If you are trying to change the color of your rims... try this... make sure you wash the rims in luke soapy water... next, thoroughly dry them... you need to apply primer to the rims... preferably white, reason for priming is if you try to paint the rims blue, they might come out green... priming it white will also bring out the color (more blue than green) assuming you want them for looks. it should work :cool:

You can get blue by dying it with Royal Blue. It'll be dark, and not bright like Losi's blue. If fact, it'll have some green in it too. Test it out on some scrap before you do the rims though.

I'd suggest you stay away from Rit's "Color Remover". It smells to high heaven. The whole house smelled like a fresh perm for two days. It's up to you though... it might lighten that yellow to almost white. Then you can decide what to do.
