Default Brake Caliper Paint



Looking for some high-temp yellow paint for brake calipers, prefer brush on type, not spay can. Any advice would be appreciated...[]

I've got a brembo chip and was wondering the same thing. I've heard that Honda had/has a yellow that is a close match to our Brembo color.

Last I heard, Brembo does not make a touch up paint.

Grab your phone book, look up an automotive paint supply place and ask them. They'll tell you exactly what you need and what color. This is also a good resource for vinyl die if you happen to need to paint the faceplates to your computer, incidentally.

Thanks for the info on "Folia Tec Brake Caliper Paint" Gardiner. I guess you paint this on with a brush, who ever wrote this did not really say how they applied the paint.

What do you think about this site?
