My wheels are starting to look faded. What is the best, economical way to repaint?

vaseline on the tires or tape them?

Would you tape off the tires or put petroleum jelly on them?

No, I would not use petroleum jelly as that is a mess. Cut pieces of drywall tape (8-10 inches) and stick around the bead and stick in place with blue painter's tape. 10 minutes tops.

Anybody have a source for rattle cans other than dealer? Is AC orange equipment paint the same color? I have some paint in a can but I need a couple cans for touch up.

One idea that looked good was using a deck of cards and sliding them in around the perimeter of the wheel.
