Okay. Brakes are meant to be as *muthafuckin clean as muthafuckin possible* that means no dirt, grime, finger grease, brake lube, anti sieze, anything! Leave your brakes alone, they are suppose to be the color that they are.

If you feel so burned to paint your calipers please dont do this ^^^^^^ i garentee his brakes will begin to squeek in about 1-3 months, assuming they werent already, just upgrade the rotors, calipers, or get a bbk! When doing your brakes empty a can of "brake cleaner" after you assemble the brakes, and ONLY lube where the pad meets the metal hardware, and the slide pins. NO WHERE ELSE.


sorry for typos, wrote up on my phone
Yeah, you have no fucking clue what you're talking about...

Okay... not to come off as a prick, but ive been a tech for 6 years and have all 8 ase's... (that includes "brakes"), and if you ask any tech who knows anything about this topic, they will tell you the same thing.

You can paint calipers
You can paint the backing plate
You can paint the rotor hat

You CAN NOT paint the rotor surface
You CAN NOT get paint on the pads or the hardware

Again im not being an ass, but this is very well known information, so simply spray painting your rotors and everything, will end bad.
