LOTS of masking!! used curved masking tape on the edges and the wrapped the rest of the spokes in low tack tape and paper... i painted the spokes first and then waited for a few days for the paint to set, then masked off the spokes for the blue.... then waited again and the whole thing got several coats of laquer
its not bad for me as i have normally have zero patience lol....

You say that as if you were the first person ever to spray spokes a different colour to the wheel.
Look nice.

People get bored on here and instead of writing anything useful they just prey on newbies ...
