How to paint alloys on a car

I was gonna put this on the Yootoob thread but thought it would be better suited in here.

Surely those masking cards would be woefully inadequate at protecting the paint?

More like nightmare..how long would it have taken to take the wheel off an paint? If that was my GTR and found out that had taken place with all that lacquer ovespray, i'd die

Could you imagine doing that job day in, day out. It's bad enough trying to do that job with the wheels off!

I wouldnt go for sand blasting, it pits the metal.

I think soda blasting or glass is the best for alloys.
