Yeah lol. An easy breakable one. Zoom in on some pics and you could see the disaster (if I did take it) 

If it bugs you, you can always just remove it and soak it in paint thinner or something... warm soapy water and a bristle brush (not metal bristles) will take care of latex based paint.

Scuffing up the surface let's the paint bind better and with 2-3 (I like 3 coats) very light coats, the new paint seems to set better;  more uniform. 

The wheel is plastic?

First time for me anyway

Still happy with the results 

I made a thread for that btw

I saw that.  I have a question: Did you scuff up the plastic before you painted?  The pictures did not show a scuffed up surface.  You might have missed a very important step.  It still looks good, mind you. 

=)

I know... some of the pictures have the light sources bouncing off of the gloss; messing up the look of it a little.  I am asking why you chose gloss over a flat?

GJ man.  Why did you not go with a matte finish?  I know the gloss/semi-gloss looks good in person though... good pictures are harder to take because of that gloss. 

You guys (OC'ers) are awesome
