I did mine with Plasti-Dip black spray. I've hit them probably 30 times or more with a pressure washer and touchless car wash and they've never peeled. If they did, I'd just spray back over that spot. They look great, and if I get tired of it, which I won't, I can just peel it off.

The only prep was to cover the brakes with walmart plastic bags and wipe the wheel down with alcohol. No sanding, no taping. The overspray peels right off of the tire. I just let it stay and it eventually peeled off of the rubber on its own. You couldn't even tell it was there.

Your Jeep looks great, btw!
