What brand of caliper paint did you use?

What colour?

How did they turn out?

How well did it stand up?

Got any photos?

I simply used Eastwood's Detail Gray, & cleared them with an automotive urethane clear (DuPont Chromaclear) out of a spray gun. They look great, & have held up awesome.

I thought I would need a high temperature paint.   :shruggy:

The eastwood caliper paint is supposedly high heat for the calipers and rotors.  I have used that on mine with no problems.
