I used hammerite (black) and haven't any problems as yet. Thinking about re painting them blue...will let you know how one coat of hammerite sites over another!

You can get the special caliper paint from the likes of Halfords.
Hammer/Smoothrite is available in more colours and can be mixed to make others.
Usual colour rules apply, like white and red will make pink! :grin:
