just sprayed two of my wheels. now ive got them perectly smooth with no marks or anything. I primed them with about 3 coats of etch primer, followed by wet and dry to smooth it down and gave the wheels about 4 coats of bmw titan silver, followed with about 4-5 coats of laquor. Now the wheels look very flat with no depth to them. Where am i going wrong

Pics of BMW titan silver coloured alloys?

How long did you leave it between the primer and the colour? and how long between each coat?
