Subject: [TR] TR6 wheel center trim

I have several of the plastic TR6 wheel trim pieces in good physical
condition but poor surface condition. Has anyone successfully prepped
and repainted these? Color? Type of paint? See attached photo.

I do have new chromed logo center caps for the wheel trim.
thanks!
  Lee

Thanks everyone. These things do clean up easily, and easy to paint. I 
already had the new chromed logo center caps (bought from TRF on sale, 
not long before the fire).

The paint that seems to get the best marks on 
british-car-wheel-discussion forums is this one, easy to get at the 
local FLAPS
