blitz supra Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 not bad at all, any idea who does the best paint for calipers mate? Im after a blue one. Smooth hamerite , same for hubs.. is best I have tried engine paint in past but rust comes back after 14 mths or so I re- handpainted my Supra writing on my calipers, Damn hard though as I used a very small Artist brush. Shaky hand or what.. but a little patience and time and they look Spot on .. When you paint your hubs though ... dont paint the mating face that the wheel sits on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 Do you know if these will stick to powercoated calipers? I suppose i can lacquer over with silk effect lacquer in order to stop it being shiny - you see i dont want shiny black claipers cos then it looks like it has been repainted.
