Economy RSR Fuchs finish ???
Is it possible to get a fair approximation of the RSR finish ( lightly frosted petals and lip) on an otherwise nearly perfect Fuchs from a mid 80's 3.2 Carrera ??
Meaning....with non-traditional methods like (for example) leaving the excellent black paint "as-is", carefully sanding the petals and rims, masking black background of the wheel...and painting the petals / rims with something like Wurth self-etching primer and a silver paint that approximates the frosted RSR look? I would accept the outer-most vertical rim portion to also be frosted...unlike a true RSR that has a slightly polished look in this area.
Before anyone jumps on me.....just asking about options. (Looks like Weidman or Reed would otherwise do a wonderful job, I know !)
