Brake Caliper Paint Recommedations Please?

dt-tdi · Jul 14, 2019

Hi all
My brake calipers could do with a lick of paint to freshen them up a bit as can be seen from the photos, can anyone recommend a decent application of paint?
I'm looking at a stock silver finish.

I'm getting mine powder coated by a local company for 20 quid per corner. I was going to paint them myself but with the lack of time and axle stands... I thought it better to get them done professionally. I'm going black with white quattro decals

Por15 is your best bet, I've just done my calipers. Por15 is kind of what hammerite used to be like before they took all the good chemicals out. https://www.frost.co.uk/brands/por15/por15-caliper-painting-kits.html

Few pictures of what my calipers look like after Por15 treatment.

And with the wheel fitted

Few pics of before, also painted the shields as well as the brake dust seams to stick to the alloy.

That’s cheap!! Are you breaking them down sending them off?
