Default Caliper Paint

Several people asked me at the Raleigh meet about the caliper paint I used. I dont have a web site for it but its called "Folia Tec" caliper lacquer paint. It is from Germany. For those in the Raleigh area you can get it at Phantasm motors. I have had it on the car for about 9 months with no noticable fading.

Airgate:

Yep, thats the stuff. It wasnt that hard to put on, but the guy with the application instructions on the last web site you posted is right, I have some spots on the garage floor and it looks like fresh blood.

The other note is that you have to do the entire job at one time. The paint is binary, after you mix the two together, you have about 4-6hrs to paint it before the stuff hardens for ever.
