Painted my calipers and rotors
The stock calipers and rotors were starting to look pretty bad. So I rotated the tires and painted the calipers, rotor hats and rear drums. It took about 4 hours and a can of high temperature gloss black spray paint.

Cajun :roflol: :roflol: Good idea. I will get started on the roasting pan today. |
Did this come in other colors???
and yes, PAINT THE ROASTER!!! ;) @ngelita |
Was it hard to paint the calipers and drums (masking off everything?)
|
Looks good! Yes--paint the muffler... (I used BBQ paint!)...

Caliper paint is on my x-mas last, and i'm pretty sure santa is bringing it.
I haven't used it yet, but from all the reviews i found, i went with the G2 kit. Lots of colors for you, a 2 part paint you mix to create an enamel. Takes 24 hours to cure. I think it's around $40 for a set. I found tons of reviews on that and the duplicolor set and the G2 won hands down. free shipping here and a coupon code to get an extra %5 off. best deal i could find. twice as much as duplicolor, but you're paying for the quality. http://www.wheelskin.com/g2_brake_caliper_paint.html Lots of people that used the duplicolor set had it cracking and flaking in a year and then re did it with the G2. Found all the info on some mustang, corvette, and lexus forums. |
you dont got to mask off to do rotors i just held newspaper up as i sprayed :) didnt get any on the rotors or anything else..
and paint the muffler.. get engine or bbq paint |
