I have come full circle on rims, used to brush paint them, then tried masking, grease, soap etc. to spray them. All the masking proved to be just as time consuming as the brush did and difficult to remove afterward. So I'm back to the brush, However there is a "secret" to a nice brush job. Apply the first coat and it will look terrible with all the brush strokes and thin spots showing through, But wait for first coat to dry [usually 24 hours] and apply a second coat fairly heavy and it will flow into the brush strokes and dry to a nice smooth finish. It works with aluminum or colored paints.
