Surplus Hub caps and retainers

[notEworthy27]

Just recently I lost one of my hub caps...I don't know if I lost it because of a broken retainer or because it was stolen. Where could I find a surplus hub cap and hub cap retainer for an '01 strada besides the casa?

OT: the retainers are a pita when changing tires...is it because of the old retainers or mali lang talaga ang pagkakalagay?

if i do get a flat, i don't transfer my retainer and center cap kasi my spare is not matched to my other tires (nagtipid kasi) so i just use the spare to get to the vulcanizinv shop and they take the retainer off and return it after the tire is fixed na

Back to what the title is all about...

Sa Banawe before reaching Children's Hospital, may isang vaccant building na may mga kariton na puro center caps at hub caps lang ang binebenta.

Maging mabusisi sa pagpili ng kukunin, karamihan ng binebenta nila puro galing sa pitik. Minsan may mga damage pa ang binebenta nila.

Buhayin ko lang tong thread na to since wala akong mahanap na close sa query ko pakidelete nalang kung meron na. Gusto ko sana i-DIY ang pagpipintura ng hubcaps ko into black from silver. Ano-ano ba ang kailangan ko bilhin sa tindahan para maging itim ang hubcaps ko? Salamat sa makakatulong. Newbie car owner po. Thanks!

Try bosny spray paint (P100) flat or shiny. Sand paper # 1000. That's it. You can also try other spray paints na medyo mahal, mas makapit

does it have to be sanded to make the black paint stick?
papano kung, after a few weeks, ayaw mo pala ang black, at babalik-silver... sira na ang original shine?

etong bosny spray paint sir nabibili ba to usually sa mga suking auto shop? I originally planned to sell my hubcaps pero nagbago ang isip ko at gusto ko ibalik sa steel rims ko pero this time gusto ko black na sana ang kulay that the reason i am planning to paint it myself pero sine newbie ako, wala ako masyado alam kung what type of paint gagamitin ko, like pwede na ba yung regular paint lang, some said anzhal at eto nga may bosny...naguguluhan na ako...hahaha!! Pero thank you sa inputs mga sir...

thanks sa input sir *ninjababez. So di pala kaya ng regular na flat black paint since plastic ang hubcaps ko. Yung sand paper na #600 at grit 2000 pwede mabili to kahit saang shop? Yung spray paint, may marerecommend ba kayo na brand?? Sorry medyo tight ang budget, di pa kaya bumili ng mags😢😥

[sirkosero]

Plastidip ka na lang para pwede mo ibalik sa dati kung sawa ka na

If flat black lang ang goal pwede na yan bosny na flat black. I do believe one of the cheapest yan. Just sand the hubcaps down with #1000 sand paper para maalis lang un shine at kumapit un flat black. No need for clear coat and polishing if flat black color. Only drawback is, pag ibabalik na sa stock silver color eh di na shiny. So, at that time, silver spray paint na ang kailangan. Same process but with the clear coat, #2000 sanding and polishing too. Just like the suggestion before. 😊

Bosny is carried by ace hardware and most auto supply shops. Anzhal eh auto paint na kailangan ng compressor at sprayer. I dont think meron spray can ang anzhal (correct me if im wrong) all the things i mentioned came from experience when I was in highschool pa (tons of diy sa car) hehehe so i know where you're coming from... Very very tight budget, minimal effort, para maka stroll agad sa gabi

thank you so much sir *Dkamb88, i spoke to my neighbor who does the carpentry/paintings/renovations sa subdivision namen and you're right, sand paper #1000 will do the job at spray paint na "acrylic" daw eh mas ok for plastics/aluminum hubcaps/mags. he said, php100 daw kuha nya sa spray na yun at baka isang lata lang magamit ko kasi sa mags nya, 2 cans pero pati loob kasi nisprayan nya. thank you so much sa lahat ng advice. medyo tight talaga ang budget so kesa bumili at ibenta ko hubcaps ko, gamitin ko nalang. ewan ko ba, sobrang gandang ganda ako sa tindi ng oto pag malinis tingnan at simple (e.g Black and White combo, body and hubcaps/mags respectively)
