    Painted some inserts for a fellow slot enthusiast:

    Black isn’t just black. Use a subtle dirt wash on the sides of the four spokes.

    Bring out your wire detail… if you don’t want to sand out the detail you can use a wash:

    1. Spray with aluminium.
    2. Brush on flat black diluted 50/50 with iso alc.
    3. Brush on a dirt wash 50/50.
    4. Chrome knock off raised centre ring and tips only.

    DArt 450WIRE3KO wire wheel inserts were used.

    Customized 4 spoke McLaren 490 Inserts are made using 450LOT4SPKO with the centre knock off removed and 490ADAPTER added (fixed in place using 5 min. epoxy). These will fit standard Slot.It wheels now.

    Visit the DArt eSHOP for these inserts.
