A nice thick even coat could last years on rims.

It took about 6 hours total. Clean rim > Spray first coat. > clean other rim > spray first coat > wait 30 minutes and spray another coat > wait another 30 minutes. and do this for 4-5 coats.. And rinse / repeat

Did 5 coats, and Mine are still there a year later. Just tiny spots where I needed to touch up.

Nice, i did my wheels about 7 months ago. they still look the same as when i did them.
and i didnt do it very thick.
i do need to re do them though, as ive got new rear tires since then, and had my fronts flipped due to camber wear, so the edges are a little messed up.
other than that they are still nice..
