Default DL-240 Wheel Cover Paint?

hi and hello again:

What manufacturer's brand and color can I use to repaint my VOLVO DL-240 wheel covers? .

lightly sanded and removed all scratches and dings. Now I wish to repaint. The wheel cover has the VOLVO name n the center and someone told me its color is "Argent Silver".The the wheel cover has a nice shine to it. Material is not plastic, metal, or fiberglass. A friend said its in the "poly" family, very flexible and soft. Inside is the retainer ring and holds the wheel cover to wheel when snapped into place. Only VOLVO could design this wheel cover buts its slick and sets off the car nicely.

Thx. Hope you can help me. I love VOLVOs and the DL-240 line.

"Poly" is plastic. The color is silver and is sold as wheel paint. It has worked well for me on 240 covers as well as several alloys.

Not sure about the brand. Any auto parts store have bright silver wheel paint. Make sure you prep the surface well before application.
