Title: Why girls shouldn't have cars
Post by: Golfgal on 18 August 2004, 11:26
I'm going to paint my calipers pink and then as they drying get a handful of silver glitter and blow it onto them so I have pink sparkly ones.

This won't cause any probs will it??

Will set of my ronal teddies a treat!!

use nail varnish. that's pretty tough. some with glitter in it will do. only one way to find out for sure. do it!

Disc brakes are always just touching very slightly, so generate heat all the time.

Yea if ya could get some aluminium filings or stainles steel filings. Thet should be O.K.

Then a clear laquer over the top.
