G2 Caliper Paint on brembos - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Im looking to paint my brembos and was wondering if anyone has used this on their brembos. How does it hold up and since you use a brush to apply the paint do you get any brush marks. If anyone has pics can you please post them especially if you have them painted yellow. Also was wondering what other paints are good for painting calipers the will be close to the factory rally yellow?

I just did my Solstice with the G2 system. I didn't take off the calibers and wish I did.

What I recommend is fully taking of the brembos and doing it that way...

no brush strokes. .. the paint is thick and when resting it flows out nicely.

and if you are going to take them off......G2 has their caliper piant in a spray too. I did mine with the brush kit.......and as said above, it flows and has a nice finish, I did mine almost 2 years ago, and they still look like new. OBVIOUSLY it holds up very well.

I used the G2 kit. It went on well and looked good, still does after 6 mo. I didnt take my calipers off. It was easier that way.I got some brembo decals off ebay and after everything was dry I sprayed the front surface with clearcoat in a can.
