How did everyone go about painting theur calipers? Without being able to lift the entire car, do you do one at a time, wait for it to dry, and then move on to the next or what?

 

Have them powdercoated !!!

 

I had mine goldplated in 18 K.!!!

 

4 jack stands.

 

That's what I figured. Just curious if anyones done it differently

 

I did mine this Thursday, turned out awesome! Walmart sells decent jack stands for $10. So pick two boxes and if you already have a floor jack $20 can get the whole thing up in the air. then just go to town with the paint!

 

I too used 4 floor jacks. The G2 paint kit is the best. Did about 4 coats and still looks perfect nearly a year later!!!

 

I would recommend engine block paint or paint that is specifically made for calipers... High temp. can be a problem... I did mine 3 months ago and didn't use high temp paint and now I have break dust melted into my caliper paint... Other than that tape everything up and get nuts!

 

G2 paint is the best. Did mine about two months ago. It helps if you can get some friends to help out.

 

Make sure you grind off the casting marks and get stickers to go with them.
