Seriously, IF and WHEN Dale restores his site, I'm going to save everything I can off of it. He's got so much great stuff; it boggles me as to why the site just won't stay up.

Is it possible to remove the Testors Enamel Paint from calipers. I did mine but I want to remove it so I can do a better job at painting them.

I would recommend a sand plaster.

Use the FSM. It's actually pretty good in the suspension areas.

I had my original calipers (front only) powered coating during a caliper rebuild (red body/ clear lettering). My new '99 spec calipers are painted with "G2" (all four); it is too early to give a roport.

The power coating has held up great with street and track driving, and is probable the most durable finish, but did not want to risk a teardown of brand new calipers for power coating or worst try powered coating as-is with seals etal in place.
