Please tell me what kind of paint u used? Where can i get it? Is it high temp duplicolor?

not sure about the op, but i just used brake caliper paint or any extremely high temp paint you can get at discount auto.

you really dont have to be perfect with it- this job is very easy, and like i said- you dont even have to worry about getting your brake caliper paint on the rotor or lines, etc in proximity of it because you can just spray paint all of that black afterward anyway.

I didn't even use newspaper to cover anything lol

Thank you!

I used G2 caliper paint on my calipers. I applied the base coat of black, let it dry, then applied white S2000 stickers to the calipers. I then sprayed the stickers with 3 coats of clear so they wouldn't be affected by dirt or brake dust. While I need to re-apply the caliper paint in certain places, the stickers still look brand new and if they ever get dirty, the dirt can easily be wiped off.
