Winter is Coming
Time to think about winterizing your Bolt.
A good Tech Tip WINTERIZING YOUR TRUCK including a link back to the Forums for additional tips.
I restored mine a few years back and although time consuming, (over 10 hours), a fairly easy process. I vee’d out the cracks, sanded any adjacent paint, used JD Weld to fill them in then sanded them down along with the rest of the wheel.
Then I sprayed several coats of Rust-oleum Filling Primer. More sanding, more primer then painted it with Rust-oleum Appliance Epoxy spray paint. The Rust-oleum chipped too easily so I repainted it last year with black 2k epoxy paint. It’s holding up much better.
