Trailer wheel repainting with primer and silver wheel finish
Trailer wheels need strong cleaning before paint because brake dust, road salt and tyre fitting residue can weaken the finish. This guide uses silicone remover, sanding, Mipa Rapidprimer and Mipa Wheel Silver so the wheel is prepared before the silver coating is applied.
Mipa silicone remover and Mipa silicone remover spray colourless 400 ml remove grease, road film and handling residue before sanding or primer.
MP Sanding Sponge keys wheel faces, rim edges and curved sections so primer and wheel silver have a dull prepared surface.
Mipa Rapidprimer and Mipa Rapidprimer Spray build the primer stage on prepared wheel metal and local bare spots before the silver finish.
Mipa Wheel Silver 1 l and Mipa Wheel Silver Spray 400 ml create the visible silver wheel coating after the primer stage.
Remove dirt, brake dust and greasy residue, then wipe the paintable area with silicone remover.
Key the wheel face, rim edge and curved sections with the sanding sponge, then remove sanding dust.
Protect tyres, valves, bolt seats, hub contact faces and brake parts before primer or wheel silver is sprayed.
Use Mipa Rapidprimer on prepared bare or local exposed metal before the silver finish.
Finish with Mipa Wheel Silver in liquid or aerosol format and let the coating dry before the wheel is handled or refitted.
Use the 1 l wheel silver format when several wheels or larger wheel surfaces need controlled spray gun application.
Use the 400 ml aerosol for a single wheel, narrow areas or local cosmetic work where a compact spray method is easier.
Use Rapidprimer liquid for larger prepared areas and Rapidprimer Spray for smaller exposed spots and edges.
Mark the wheel position before removal if the trailer has been balanced or set up carefully. Paint work is easier off the trailer, but clean masking around the tyre, valve and bolt seats is still essential.
