How to Transform the Wheel Covers of the Tata Altroz into Alloy-Like Wheels

Model: Tata Altroz MK 1 - Years 2020-2026
Part: Wheel

In this video, learn how to paint the metal wheel covers of your Tata Altroz to make them look like alloy wheels. Remove the wheel covers and clean the steel wheel thoroughly, applying an oxidizer that will darken the metal (costs about $25 at major e-commerce chains). Apply it evenly so that the wheel is well coated, and clean it perfectly. For better results, also clean the outside of the tires with a suitable product. Take the wheel covers and clean them thoroughly. Now, using painter's tape, mask them so that only the areas you want to paint remain exposed, ensuring a clean line. Follow your taste or, if you prefer, the aesthetic advice from our YouTuber. Once you have masked all four, place them in an open area on newspaper and proceed to spray paint them black. Apply two coats for a more durable finish. Allow them to dry thoroughly for at least 24 hours. It is important that the day chosen for this operation is not cloudy or rainy. Now spray a protective layer and let it dry for 24 hours. After this time, you can remove the masking. The result is surprising. You can now put the wheel covers back on your Tata Altroz.
