    Can anyone tell me what kind of red paint should I use to paint my brake calipers on my Modena F1. I assume it will be high temperature paint and where can I get it from? Is a spray-on type in a can?
    Thank you. Carlo.

    Are you sure you want to do this yourself? If you are then just use nail polish :)

    My local paint supplier said that regular engine paint (high temp) can be used for calipers. Anyone used that kind of paint for brakes?
    Regards. Carlo.

    yep it came in a spray can, not sure of the exact name anymore but its was a high-temp resistant caliper paint.

    I bought it at Super Cheap Auto, not sure what the equivalent is over there but any auto shop should have it. ;)
