Painting your Calipers

Foxy red said:
Slight resurrection I know... but I'm actually doing this next week whilst I'm on holiday.

Where is the cheapest place to buy caliper paint?
(Going with proper caliper paint as I've heard that Haemorite blisters at high temperatures)

Cheers,

Natalie

I've never heard that...... Hammerite is pretty tough stuff.... :?

Someone posted about it on here and I remember it as it was something I was going to use. He just said that that was what he had used, but when breaking hard, the disc had heated up and blistered the paint :shock:

I'm impressed! I was hoping to find a kind man to take pity on me and do mine but I think I'll give it a go now!
 
Hammerite all the way, red on my red ATR lasted well over 2 years without signs of problems, silver on my black S2000 :D 8)
