I'll be getting some wheels shortly in matt black, if I apply laquer to them, will they become "glossy"?

(if you get what I mean) haha :oops:

depends on the lacquer.... these days you can get different finishes just like varnish, i think it depends on the brand as well as what temp it is supposed to be 'flash dry'...

i wouldn't bother to be fair, id wait and get them powder coated in matt black when the finish goes south... much harder wearing and no need to faff

Dont lacquer the wheels with std clearcoat or they will have a gloss finish, you can buy matt lacquer, it is glossy on application but then looses its shine once dry
