Painted factory 18'' wheels and brake calipers

Vader 5.0 · Mar 1, 2015

So I finally got around to painting my wheels and calipers. For the wheels I used plasti-dip, started with a tac coat followed by 5 thick coats and 2 coats of plasti dip glossifier. Wheels came out awesome no drips, even color and a nice gloss! For the calipers I used G2 complete caliper paint system. It came out better then I could have ever expected, smooth and glossy almost like they were powdercoated.

I copied and pasted the URLs and took a look at the pictures since I intend to do the same with mine.
Finished car looks great.

What is the rust on the rotors? Power washer to clean the painted parts?

It was on jack stands all night in the rain. That rust color will happen to any car, once you apply the brakes it clears right up.
