I use NAPA high temperature aluminum. It is intended for use on manifolds and exhaust systems. You will find that it dries smoother and looks more like the original finish than regular aluminum paint. It lasts longer before rust shows through too. Ed

Check out a Benj.Moore product called Ironclad.
It's used to paint exposed metal beams. I have used this on two tractors, inside the front and rear wheel rims. It does require complete drying before mounting the tube and tire. Prep work, as with any type of painting, is what really makes it work/look the best. Good luck, have fun, jackie

I agree with the other poster.. most primers aren't sealed. I like to use an epoxy paint ont he inside of my rims.. it's darn tough and fluid / chemical resistant.. so if your tube leaks.. it will help protect the rim if you use CACL.

Depends on the type of primer used. Some of the old laquer types and non-catylized primers will actually absorb moisture letting it through to the metal and then rusting. They need top-coated. Use an epoxy and it dont.
