OEM Rotor Hat Paint

[ShadowCS]

I have a request for assistance. I am in need of a rattle can spray paint to touch up my rotor hats and base 2017 Mustang GT front calipers. I like the OEM grey color as opposed to the silver caliper paint that is easy to find. I've looked many places and haven't had any luck, Does anyone offer a spray can option in the original color? Thanks,

You'll want high-temperature paint, maybe there's something in close enough grey from VHT or Rust-Oleum.

I would think the high temp dupli-color primer looks pretty close to factory.

The rotors are coated from the factory with a corrosive preventative that shouldn't be painted over if you want to maintain that protection.
The hats should be able to be cleaned fairly easily with scotch brite and dish soap. If you have a picture of what your trying to redo, I may be able to provide a better or more specific solution.

They all rust no matter what you put on there. Painting them won't hurt anything.

Thanks for the help! I’m not to concerned about corrosion, this is a summer only ride and always put away clean. My needs would be for appearace sake and maybe only once at the beginning of the season. The longer it can be cleaned up to look new, the better.

Don't primers tend to be porous?

I've never noticed it with that primer. Used it many many many times.
For even more protection, use the high temp clear coat.
