The smartest thing to recollect right here is to make use of high-temperature spray paint as a substitute of strange paint. Remember that the brakes get very popular, and utilizing paint not designed to resist extraordinarily excessive temperatures will end in untimely effervescent, cracking, or fading.

Before spraying, be sure that all rubber elements — particularly piston seals — are masked with tape. Moreover, it is a good suggestion to cowl the encompassing space with a plastic rubbish bag to forestall undesirable overspray on the fender liners, discs, and suspension dampers.

Spray two to a few gentle coats of paint, remembering to permit the floor to dry between every coat. Let the paint dry for 20-Half-hour after spraying the ultimate coat. The final step is to re-install the brake caliper on the hub and affix the wheels. If the climate is good and dry, drive for about 15 to twenty minutes to “bake” the newly painted calipers.
