My red R calipers are accumulating chips and I'd sure like to try touching them up. Boy the paint is thick! Can't seem to find exact Brembo red - plus to be effective it would have to withstand the heat.

The R calipers are powder coated, that is a polyester film. I use VHT red caliper paint, it comes in spray cans only and should match the Brembo red very closely. You'll need to spray some in a small cup and use a small brush for touch ups. This paint is extremely durable. I have 20,000 miles on my calipers and they still shine like new, granted they will need some of the nicks touched up this summer.

Thanks! Excellent advice - wish I would have thought of that!
