Title: brake callipers
Post by: FOREST GREEN on 06 March 2010, 21:50

I want to paint my Brake Callipers when I've finished painting my wheels. I've read that some people have used Smooth Hammerite, as its just as good as calliper paint :huh:Is this right? I know what colour that I want to paint them, its going to be an unusual shade to say the least (will post some pics when all completed). Is there any other type of paint that can be used apart from the afore mentioned, and, do they have to be sprayed, or is it possible to Brush Paint them :shocked:
Any input/advice/pics gratefully received  :wink:
