Re-painting rims

I have been thinking seriously of re-painting my XXR Rims.
Would be the same color, I would just like to freshen them up.

Any Ideas, tips or input? (Plastic-dip is not an option)

You're Welcome `Tadd,
I am not a good painter

I've tried & found it's better for me to take it to the pro's.

I tried to learn on the net, but I need professional lessons to get it done to the high standards I set on myself...

I hope that one of our expert painting member's see's your thread & give some helpful tips...Good Luck
