Brake caliper painting

[greentouring]

Do you reckon high temp paint will do the trick? I reckon that 'special ' paint for the job is a rip off.

Any tips while painting these and how not too cause any damage or problems?

One last think, I have been uncertain as to what colour to paint them that would suit the car. They don't show that much through BBS cross-spokes, so I was thinking yellow, or is that council? Other colours were green, black or gold.....if all else fails, good ol' red I suppose!

I used Hammerite high temp paint, and it was fine.

Red Touring with red calipers now

I think yellow would look good on a green car, or red after that.
