What kind of brake caliper paint do you guys recommand?

 

I used high temperature engine paint from NAPA. I think they have 500 degree and 800 or 900 degree. I did them about a month and a half ago and haven't had any problems.

I used plain ol' engine engine spray enamel on my last car. Looked just as good three years later.

 

Any suggestions on cleaning up the calipers before you can paint them? Mine are full of just about everything.

 

How long does it take to DRY, anybody can answer.

 

I used Brake Cleaner, a stiff bristled brush, and lotsa elbow grease!

 

someone used tamiya model paint ......if you use the "search " you can see his pics!

 

That was for the INTERIOR

Plasticote now makes "Brake Caliper" Paint in spray cans 800degF and Chemical resistant - Brake fluid will eat up most other paints. I just bought som but have not used it yet - will be rebuilding & Re-Painting my calipers in the next couple weeks.

 

before you say im wrong you should do a "search"
the guy DIDNT use TAMIYA paint
he DID use testor paint ......they are even pics of him brushing the stuff on
i really dont care what you use !
