Tried something like that on some wheel covers for our Toyota Previa minivan. The van had rubbed to many curbs, and the paint was scratched off. So we power washed the covers, stripped almost all the paint of it, then sanded the rest. We bought the products from Pepboys, and it included a cleaner, adhesive, primer, Titanium spray paint (a little darker then silver, helps cover break dust alot more) and then a laquer finish, and clear coat. Spent about $60 in materials. I'd say the ultimate result was alright. But it looked tacky.

I don't know these kits are any better, but It seems to me like its a cheap way out, almost like buying spray paint to paint some of yor car, when manufacturers paint your wheels, they go through a process that no do it yourself kit can do. Also after all that work to make our wheel covers look good, the paint flaked of with a high pressure spray of water from the garden hose. O well, you live and learn.
