Paint NOS calipers?

[Nacho-RT74]

Just found locally and bought NOS calipers on around US$65-70 for the pair

Always wanted this pieces new since for some reason, mine are somehow different cast from one side to the other, plus they are kinda rusted inside, specially on dust seal groove.

would you paint them ?

When new at the dealers these were already probably rusting as they were bare cast iron.  I can see those are rusting a little as well.  I am a detail fanatic so I would coat them for sure.  But rust was the natural color....I like using some PPG DP40 primer to seal up the iron and then some Eastwood cast grey to topcoat.  It seems to hold up very well.

If nothing else, paint them gray

maybe gray powdercoat ?

I think price was nice... don't you think?

If powdercoated they need to be disassembled, would look great though.
