Paul, since you applied your caliper paint back in October, have you experienced any peeling or discoloration problems due to heat? I'm getting ready to do some brake work and thought I'd paint the calipers while I was at it.

Thanks!

Paul;
is the paint applied with a brush or with a spray can?

I am wondering because I have the Ferrari logo on my calipers.
I would have to tape that off I guess.

Martin,

You can paint them right on car (24 hr cure time)

Here are photos

Did you have to take the calipers off the breaks to do the job or while they are one. That was a little unclear in the description.

Did you take pictures?

Martin,

Just finished painting calipers and they are as good looking as the new ferrari calipers.
The paint is a 2 part high temp epoxy mix and you will have to do 2 coats, get a good wire brush and brush the calipers well, an extra can of brake clean is worth picking up at local parts store.

Super high gloss finish!

Can't wait to install 18" 360 Modena wheels so calipers are in view.
