Painting brake calipers
Painting brake calipers
can i just use high temp spray paint to paint my calipers. or do i have to get that folia-tec junk? i heard spray paint works well too, but will it last as long?

If you're doing red/black/silver/white any sort of pretty standard color the spray paint should work fine. My rice boy brother's civic has white calipers with the white high temp paint, and it looks good. He's had it for about a year and no issues.

The Foliatec-type of caliper paint may seem expensive, however, remember that it IS aircraft paint, and will hold up a lot longer and looks soooo much better than high temp spray paint.
Take the plunge, be brave... get Foliatec and do it right. Otherwise, you will look like just another ricer...
