brake caliper paint question
#6
FWIW, the "Duplicolor" brand ceramic caliper paint in a kit seems to work very well (Autozone, et al.). Retains color better than typical spray paints, easy to clean dust and debris off. However, although it is heat resistant, it chips very easily. And you have to put multiple thin coats on rather than a single thick one (use a sponge brush). It's very forgiving as it tends to self-level. I preped with a scrub of Simple Green or other eco-friendly cleaner followed by lacquer thinner. Tape what you don't want painted and go to it. Let cure over night and reassimble; touch-up nicks. The kit has done two full caliper sets and there is still lots left.
