Hope you have better luck than I did getting them back on the rim without scratching them to death! I scratched the crap out of mine. Next time I'll paint the insides the mount them and finish painting them after I mount them.

This stuff. Its been decades since I did any automotive painting, and everything has changed. So I went with the NAPA since there is one local to me. It seems expensive (to me... I think $50/qt? if I remember right, I bought it a couple summers ago). Everything on the tractor got this paint or powder coat. Most of the tractor got a 'one part epoxy primer' (oxymoron I know, its 901 grey from NAPA, maybe a fleet primer). But I was out of this so a 2k primer with activator was used on these rims.
I use a small HVLP gun for these smaller items, and a full size HVLP for the larger panels and such. Im not sure what to think. I was used to older style Dupont paints and regular spray gun. I think I still like the regular gun although there is more overspray to be sure. This paint is Urethane with a hardener. It seems hard enough. A little thin (so multiple coats - another thing my HVLP doesnt handle well is thick paint (like primer) - the full size gun has a larger nozzle and does a little better). Seems to chip easily if the edges dinged. By no means am I an expert. For these rims I recon they will get buggered up mounting the tires, so some touch up after mounted will be in order (always tricky to get a tired mounted without edge dings). We will see... Those V61 6 plys are the really tough ones, still have the fronts to do.

Maybe if I get lucky I cant touch up the edges with a small artist paint brush and not need to spray... (an optimist)

yeeter:
With the way you are finishing everything off so nicely, I'm tempted to go the route of an HVLP gun and leave the rattle cans behind (although I love the quality of Valspar Farm Equipment Enamel). What brand of spray gun are you using?

I always lay a piece of carpet down and mount mine from the backside... that way if you scratch it it will be on the inside.. also like twoton said, use a rubber lubricant..
An automotive rim clamp type machine will also mount them without ever touching the rim.. They look nice!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
