There are plenty of companies that do it and they use 2 pack epoxy paint.
Wheel manufacturers use statically charged powder particles. The paint particles get attracted to the wheels and it is quicker and easier to get a uniform coating. Its also more enviromentally friendly.
A good 2 pack and a low bake oven will make a good job of them.

Do you have a low bake oven to cure them in?
I think you;d be better off paying someone to re-condition them for you. I think it's about £50 a wheel (obviously more than a tenner for some paint at Halfords, but if you want it done properly...)
