----------CUSTOM CENTER CAPS----------
Here's a custom little addition for the Hummer center caps.
Items needed:
1- spray paint
2- rubbing alcohol
3- cotton swabs
4- paper towels
5- adhesive romover
6- masking tape
7- news paper
8- scissors
Ok here we go!
First take off the center caps (all 5). Then dampen a cotton swab w/ rubbing alcohol and clean out all letters. Mask off around the letters (just mask off the basic outline). Using the newspaper, cut out around lettering so you dont get overspray on the center cap, and tape down.
Spray 3 light coats of paint over the lettering at all angles for complete coverage.Remove tape, Let dry for 10-15 minutes. Using a paper towel, lightly dampen with adhesive remover and rub over letters gently to remove any overspray (make sure you don't saturate paper towell, if you do you could very easily get the adhesive remover in the lettering and make a big mess). Yes my H3 is red and yes, what a great match!
That's it!, pop your center caps on and wha la, CUSTOM CENTER CAPS!
