Have you made a "how to" caliper paint thread?

Brushed on my first few coats and then used a preval sprayer to smooth out the finish.

I did mine on the car as well ..just clean them real good and take your time with the brush

I bought these from a salvage yard.

Used brake cleaner, wire brush and lots of wet sanding.
This was spray paint by the way.

Does sanding a mandatory step even for almost brand new calipers? I'm planning to paint them as soon as car arrives at the dealer.

I used G2 caliper paint and didn't sand anything at all, just the brake cleaner.

With them being that new, probably not.

Mine were used and I wanted a clean surface with no brake dust.

What paint did you use for this?

 

[mavisky]

Custom color matched G2 caliper paint.

It's not listed in their previously mixed custom color shade for some reason, but this is how I got mine. Not sure how @Elvis66 got his, but I'm guessing the same.

Did you have to buy two kits for front and rear due to caliper size?
