This rim was a pain in the butt to do. First one was easy, One day to dismount clean and paint. Next day to mount the tire and put it back on the tractor and start to take the other one off. This one somebody had welded each of the adjusters to the rim because they lost one of the cam wedeges so lots of cutting. The tube had a patch on it when I took it off and figuared the rim would look bad, I was right. Beat all the rust off wire wheeled it and mixed up some baking soda and water to make a paste and coated the bad areas and let it sit for 2 days. Sand plasted it and gave it two heavy coats of cold galvinsing compound and two heavy coats of aliumiun paint with a brush and a spray coat to the outside of the rim. Its alot of work but if you are going to do it do it right. This is for a working tractor that needed tires not to restore it and sit around to look at. Just work that needed done to keep her working. Bandit
