Default Question about paint.

I am about to paint the wheels on my Losi Night Crawler (the stock ones which come chrome) what is a good paint to use for wheels? Just any paint or is a certain brand more durable and flexible? (painting them black) and also what is a really flexible paint to paint shocks with?

P.S. What can I soak the wheels in to get the chrome off?

I use meguire's chrome rim cleaner to strip the chrome. Try it on a little spot first to make sure it doesn't react with the plastic. I've used it on Traxxas Slash wheels and on my HPI Wheel King chassis. It works great, just spray it on and let it sit, no scrubbing, nothing!!!
