    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?

    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😢😥
