how heat reactive paint seems to work is that paint the engine cover in red to match your car then paint the cover in heat reactive white for example, then when it get hot the white goes clear to make the cover red........ if that makes sense!

Soooo impressed with your work mate, am I right in saying that your self taught???
Its a shame you dont have finished pics of the R5, always like them and there such a rare sight on the roads now. The clio 16v wheels suit it perfectly with the inserts in grey.
How much would you charge for a set of alloys to paint???
I am just asking as i've been quoted between £250-£350 for a set of 5 including taking out the slight kerbing marks that the wife has kindly added.
do quite a few wheels, for set of 4 a charge between 80-100 generally! wheels use such a small amount of paint and dont take to much time to do, so wheels can be boring fiddly to do! did a set of oz imprezze ones, had like 15-20 spokes, hated doing them! lol
250-300 is mad price, profssional wheel plces i thought only charge like 150 for set! i dont know for sure
That was a quote from 2 professional places.
My alloys are really easy to work on as well as the spokes are so far apart.
I'll try and go further afield I think.
