Any surface can be customised with the types of motorcycle rim paints. In the field of bodywork « custom paint », it is not always thought that rims can be truly transformed with a special paint, taking them from « secondary » parts to a true masterstroke in style.
Yes, motorcycle wheel tuning paints can produce spectacular results and enhance the aggressive look of a motorcycle.
Here are some ideas for tuning and painting your motorcycle rims :
Diamond :
Just imagine glittering wheels, both under the sun and under the lights of street lamps at night: that’s what we first offer you with “Diamond paints”.
These are pearlescent effect glitter paints that create iridescent reflections. They are transparent paints that can be used in any combination, i.e. on any background colour and under any Candy-coloured clearcoat.
Some ideas of tuning paints for motorcycle rims :
Prismatic paint :
Never heard of it? Well, you have probably already seen this effect: we present one of the most impressive paints there is.
Clearly, this is not for going unnoticed, with this paint that is also called « holographic », referring to the hologram impression created by the paint colour, which is made of pure light reflections. The rainbow reflection varies according to the light and changes radically depending on the shade of the undercoat — white, grey, black or even coloured.
Fluorescent :
The 14 fluorescent colours are natural, or rather supernatural, because they are striking and powerful. They are part of the effect paints and go particularly well with all styles of motorcycle rims, giving a sporty look.
Required for 2 rims: 500 ml.
Marbled and crystallised effect :
Reserved for bikers with a good dose of motivation, we go up-market with crackle style paints, crystallised and “marbled effect”, which are often applied together with a Candy clearcoat (transparent and coloured clearcoat). The visual results with these motorcycle rim tuning paint techniques are beautiful, intriguing and spectacular.
The matte fashion for custom rims
Matte clearcoats prevent any light reflections from forming on the paint surface. They suppress sparkling reflections and yet are definitely ultra-trendy on all pearlescent, metallic or chameleon-type finishes, giving that very attractive “soft metal” effect, with its stealthy yet innovative look.
The new matte clearcoats are suitable for all tuning effects and are now particularly resistant.
Luminescent : something different to try
Phosphorescent: this luminous effect, which is quite easy to achieve since it is applied like a classic paint, can be an original idea to customise your rim paint.
Particularly visible and effective at night, and outside cities, wheels painted in phosphorescent paint will not fail to attract some curious looks on your way.
The effect is long-lasting, since we are talking about a few decades. For the longest phosphorescence, you should use a green colour and apply the maximum number of coats.
