OEM Painted Steel Wheels
Looking to get a set of the Wheel Vintiques Series 62 Steel Wheels that I plan to run with Dog Dish Caps on my '64 Goat. These come bare steel so I was wondering what the sheen of the original black wheels would have been.

For correctness, I believe we have agreed on black primer the whole wheel and then 60% gloss on the front only with overspray then showing on the back side. more will join in. "Bill"!

I've had good results with the Dupli's wheel coatings, it's been holding up real good.
Ive used it on my Rally I & plain steelies. https://www.duplicolor.com/products/wheelCoating/

Yes on both counts;
 I don't run on the 14x5 steelies a lot but it's held up well. The R1 are on almost always and the Silver was very acceptable to me as a close match to E.O.

Cool! Thanks for the recommendation. One last question: Did you clear coat?

Got a set of 14 steels from friend that was restomoding a 66 Chevy. Sand blasted them & went to the PPG store had them mix up some single stage Starlight Black for me. Looks about 60% gloss.

I got my 14x7 steel wheels from the Parts Place. They come powder coated in semi gloss black. $99 eaxh, $128 delivered. I'm very happy with them.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
