Title: Tornado Red calliper paint ly3d
Post by: gtiaps on 26 February 2018, 18:52

Hi all.
As title I swapped my santis for the winet set a few weeks ago and noticed paint chips on the red callipers.
Done some digging and apparently the Tornado Red is a good match for the callipers bur I can't find and heat resistant paint of that colour.
Anyone else had this issue and resolved it...

Thanks in advance

I've always used a tornado touch up stick from VW on my caliper chips without any issues.  And as you say the match is excellent.

Yeah cheers for that I have thought about it but obviously knowing touch up paint isn't the se as heat resistant calliper paint I wasn't too sure about it..
