Today was spent restoring the finish to my old Wolfrace Sluts, until rain stopped play. Still 2 down and 2 to go........

Lose the paint

Painted slots not cool anymore then?

I say keep the paint! Slots are retro-cool at the mo, painted slots will be the next phase ...

Anywho, great improvement, look forward to seeing the completed look

Might wait until everyone else paints theirs, then strip the paint

Don't think the world is ready yet for the return of the painted slot, wait till window tassles and buttoned draylon interiors make a reapperance then go for it

I had painted slots on me Buick...with General Grabbers...no expense spared to make sure I was mister cool (well apart from the acne and long greasy hair)...but that was 30 years ago!

keep the paint, its period perfect unless you need to lose the weight to get into the elevens

Turn the red paint to black and keep polishing,theres more to come from them yet

.Are they Kelly Superchargers as well??

yep the paints got to go looks as naf as white letter tyres, some things should never come back.

Best thing to do is polish the slots as well just like the wheels they were copied from. Thats what i am going to do to my rear Wolfies to match my new front wheels which are fully polished Halibrand replicas.

Keep polishing now you have roughed out the first two

Treat yourself to a new set of Lug nuts from MisteR Tee for the perfect finish

looks loads better! you're aiming for a finish that could be mistaken for chrome.

And I say red in the slots (thats how i want mine) but not in the date stamps etc.

Oh and let me know if you haven't bought a set of new centrecaps from me yet

They are indeed Kelly SuperChargers (with the letters outlined in white - originally

) N50 - 15's. Look great on the car but due to their height and square sidewall they rub on the outer arch, the walls are also seriously cracked and split. soon to be changed for a new set of 275/60/15's

This is what they came off........
