    Take ur time and don't overload it so it won't bubble up.. Make sure it's warm outside as well.

    Keep going. I have the same black truck and want to black the wheels the same way. Any issue with overspray onto tires or truck? How many coats? Is your front grill and back bumper still chrome?

    No I just taped close to the rim (not right on it). As for now my bumper and grill is still chrome but I'm looking to do it as well.!.
