I'm replacing the tires on my 35 Tplane.
The rims have some rust so I was going to have them soda blasted and painted.
I checked with a local powder coater but they don’t have a close enough color match.
Any suggestions on the type paint a body shop could use so it doesn’t chip when the tires are installed?

Blast then apply epoxy primer. Urethane single stage for the top coat. Cure several days before mounting tires.

Does anyone know where I can get the spring clips & rivets for them that hold the hub caps on.
two of the rims have broken clips.
