Without having to refinish my Brembo calipers can I just lightly sand and spray a coat of clear on them? They are black and just a little dull looking.

no no no cant use a brillo man ..yes way to rough .. pep boys sells scuff pads red being fine.... white or yellow being the one you want ,and use dawn dish soap. .. i would rattle off the stuff i use in work but it would only confuse you more lol ...i paint cars for a living so i blend a lot of panels and for a blending panel i use yellow 3m scuff or white with a scuffing agent with water of course.. im just trying to give ya the most cost effective way to do it without buying the body shop stuff i use ..

I appreciate it man! They don't look rough or in bad shape just a little dull.. They just need more shine to them.

Similar to the black textured paint on my Harley motor. It dulls. The trick we all use is WD40.
