paint/color for painted wire wheels?

[Healey_Z]

Moss lists a "Silver-Gray" for wire wheels. Does the paint have any metalic in it? Has anyone rattle canned their wheels? What color/paint did you use and how did it turn out?

Hey Healey Z,
I've used the Moss paint on MG TC's and Healey's and it works fine. Just don't put on too heavy of a coat at a time. From what I have read, their silver color is very accurate and does not have any metallic in it.
Regards,
Mike

I have visions of a posting on a Cougar forum saying Moss Motors silver wire wheel paint works great on Cougar wheels

65 Cougar? Being a Ford guy, I know that there is no such thing, perhaps a different manufacturer of a Cougar wire wheeled sports car besides Ford?. After some more searching, it looks like a silver color, not too metalic and not too gray was the factory color.

Since I am going with a BRG, I will look for a lighter silver color, as close to this as possible.

I found Moss Wire Wheel silver is a lacquer and wipes off easy with solvent.
the correct color name is Argent Silver
Hope this helps
