Thanks. It was just a spray can of wheel paint made by RustOleum. The color is listed as 248930 - Graphite. I like the color. My crappy cell phone pixs don't show the "real" color of the wheels. They look even better in person. We'll just see how long they hold up.

I did about 3 coats of paint and two coats of clear. I'm hoping with all the prep work and paint it will last atleast a year, or until I can buy new wheels.
