Paint for disc brake pads & rear brake drums - Team-BHP

VC12 · 20th August 2007, 13:07

Hi All,

I am not certain and unable to find thread on piant for brake pads.

I am seeking to get the barke pads & drums painted in either Red or Yellow, I have a black Ikon and for the same suggest the best color thats appealing thru the alloys and paint( that can resist rust, heat).

Thanks,

Ok thanx,

I AM TRYING TO SEARCH FOR THE THREAD ON THE SAME.

Can anyone suggest any specific paint brand that would sustain long?

Morderators could you suggest?

Hi guys, just last week, I was going through some threads & saw this really gorgeous brake caliper, painted blue, & with Corvette lettering. I remember enough to say that it had been posted in response to somebody's advice that blue wasn't an ideal choice for brake calipers. Does anybody remember which post it was ? It was really awesome !
