can anyone tell me how to paint my calipers?

thanks in advance

 

go to walmart and buy the kit and read the directions on the back thats it

hope this helps

 

heres a quick and easy way to do it:

1. go to pepboys/autozone and buy brake cleaner and brake caliper paint(whatever color you want)

2. jack you car up and take the first wheel off, put a jack stand underneath to keep that car up

3. get some newspaper and tape and cover EVERYTHING (except for the brake caliper) inside the wheel-well, the fender, and anything else that could get hit by any overspray

4. following the directions on the can spray the caliper with the cleaner (this should dry very fast)

5. then following the directions on the can spray the caliper with the paint, let it dry, then do another coat, etc., make sure to spray in smooth even strokes

6. let it dry and your done, you could do both wheels at once or one at a time, but the most important thing is the newspaper and tape, you gotta cover EVERYTHING!!! other than the calipers of course

What color do you plan on painting them?

 

red

 

I've done it before on my other cars, and I don't think you'll have any problem.
Just make sure you don't get any overspray on the rotors. It's actually better if you have the expertise to remove the caliper and then spray em (you can leave the hose connected).

 

I used a brush-on kit from G2, I liked it. $30 or so.

 

I don't know. Maybe it's just me but something tells me to stick to spray paint rather than brush on. It'll probably come out smoother than brush on.

 

The paint's pretty thin and goes on easily. No brush marks showing or anything. Plus it's nice and glossy. It was recommended by a couple people on this forum.
