I have chrome center caps that came with my steel wheels but they are starting to rust pretty bad. Can I paint them a gloss back to match the rim?

if so what would be the best way to do this? sanding and choice paints.

thanks

You really have to rough them up to get it to stick. Ideal thing would be to get them bead blasted. My local machine shop has a cabinet that works like a rotisserie and shoots beads around. they don't charge much to throw something in it. Especially if you aren't in a hurry and they can throw them in with another project. Then prime and paint. I like Rustoleum because it is cheap to paint and cheap to touch up. All that said, if it was me, I would probably just ditch the caps.
