How to Paint Brake Calipers in the CLEANEST and EASIEST Way! (Brush On) 

YES, I painted the back of my brake pads guys, glad everyone noticed :) replacing brake pads soon anyway Here's were you can buy this kit: Black: amzn.to/2LiZdt3 Red: amzn.to/2LspILc Blue: amzn.to/2NL25R2 Yellow: amzn.to/2LhTt2I Purple: amzn.to/2MQprVC Green: amzn.to/2UpmSej Pink: amzn.to/34eJEtD Orange: amzn.to/2LiZtIx Silver: amzn.to/2PDmk5B All other colors: amzn.to/2PDmk5B

Roman, just a tip, you could have used chap stick on the Corvette letters . the paint would not stick to it then after drying you could wipe it off. Worked for me.

So many different videos for spray painting calipers, whether people mask to spray paint in place or they completely remove them to bench paint them. Nice to see someone making a kit to brush paint them. I have 3/4 of a gallon of Fire Engine Red of Tremclad Rust-0-leum rust paint, which is the real oil based paint, before Tremclad switched to "oil technology" paint. I painted the calipers two years ago. Cleaned them with brake cleaner, wire brushed them with a rotary wire brush on a drill, cleaned with brake cleaner again and applied paint with two sizes of artist's brushes. The old oil paint, brushes smooth with a good brush, applies thick and levels without any brush strokes. Little to no masking and no over spray issues. Two coats of paint and then top coated with 2X thick exterior polyurethane clear coat. I took one day to paint the front calipers and a second day to do the rear, helping the drying period along with a heat gun. Although the paint and clear coat have no heat ratings, there have been no issues what-so-ever. Two years later and still looking like the day they were painted. After all, they are just calipers and you get a flashing peek at them through the wheel spokes.

The BRIGHTNESS of the caliper is what made me remember this video and see it repeatedly and KNOW that I need to come back to this some day.

You need to pay your assistant far more than what you originally negotiated for. Hes INVALUABLE!!! :)

Wow finally an honest straight up easy to watch video, thanks brother

Thanks! This gives me so much confidence when my blue paint kit arrives next week.

Dude that looks great! When I came across this video about brushing the paint on never thought it would work. Looks great!

Damn, that looks nice. I am going to do a brake job-I think I'll paint them while they are swung up. Well done!

I was dreading taking out the calipers to paint it this is sooooo helpful thanks a bunch mate

This is exactly the video I was looking for. Keeping it simple but looking great. Thanks

This actually looks better than all the other videos that spray painted.

That Corvete it's just amazing 😁

Did mine with the same paint, same color almost 2 years ago, and they still look great!

Thanks for sharing this way easier method than most others. Best Regards.

Well damn, I just bought a regular spray paint kit and now I see this video!? I may end up regretting it! This is badass. 👍🏻👍🏻

You definitely had some good help taking the wheels off, too cute 😅

This is exactly what I wanted to do on my older Dodge RAM pickup. Looks nice without all the mess of spraying. Excellent job! Aloha. =)

Turned out really well! I was hoping you were going to hit the letters with a white paint and then clear and dry, but I’m really impressed with the color and ease with which you were able to change colors! I have red calipers, but I’d think I’d prefer blue as well! Great job! Thanks

This paint is awesome. I did mine 10 years ago in red and still no flaking or dulling.

Just ordered some for mine in black, thank you for the heads up!

i bought this set after watching your video. Great job. looking forward to the weather improving so i can get on with it!! got some brake caliper decals too

That makes a huge difference.. I wish I could do that on mine with wide open 5 star rims. Looks so nice

G2 caliper paint is awesome. Also excellent customer service from G2 when I contacted them once. Do proper prep and it’s very easy to paint. Once I go around and do the first coat for all for brakes, I can immediately start again for second and third and maybe forth coat on 1-2 brakes until I use up the small can. It usually only chips if you drive on gravel roads. Very durable and very easy to apply after prep (cleaning).

Nice job looks pretty straight forward and like you said it's not messy.

Thanks man, that's what I needed. I thought about doing spray, but it look a bit complicated to do that. With this link you provided for the color, and what you showed, look a lot easier to deal with. SO, I'm going to try this out instead. Thanks again for showing a bit of tutorial on this.

Nice video. It's really pretty easy to take off the calipers and rotors (just 2 bolts), then just put the calipers back on lightly with the bolts and paint them with no worries of the pads (I think it's kind of goofy to paint the pads...my opinion) and no worries of painting the rotors. Literally it's just two bolts and you can remove the calipers and rotors.

It seems to be very easy to do, so it will be helpful. Thanks for uploading the video!

I used this Kit and It worked great. Highly recommend. I took mine all apart to clean and paint.

I purchased this about two months ago seen your video just can’t wait to do it now

I am inspired by this video now!

Looks amazing. Big Corvette Fan here from the UK.

I used (red) engine paint for my calipers. I painted it on (2 coats) with art brush similar to the one used in the video. It does not dry too quickly, so leaves a nice smooth finish. It looks great and has lasted very well.

Clean and simple thanks for the video.

Thanks for the great vid. I have a blue truck and bought the blue G2 to go under my black wheels. I was not sure if there would be enough from reviews where i bought the paint from so again thanks for the vid and the confidence i will have enough paint to get the job done... great looking corvette too ...

SHARP!!! LIKE THAT BLUE ON THE BLACK

I bought the same paint kit awhile go but didn’t get around to doing it. Now that I’m dying of boredom with this quarantine, I’ve got something to do, great video!

Thanks! I'll be trying this project on my RX8 this weekend. Ironically I bought blue paint too. (Offsets my silver car)

Fantastic job , will look into that paint..thanks and the corvette is crazy cool .

Those calipers look great dude! Nice job!

I’ve used this G2system to recently paint the calipers on my Pontiac Solstice! It was amazingly easy and I’m 75 , arthritic, have had three shoulder surgeries and three back surgeries! Seriously I wasn’t sure about removing and reinstalling the tires but it wasn’t that bad and the calipers look great! Ps. It’s up to $79 now.

Great job. Thanks for this. Given me confidence to paint mine over here in the UK.

I used this paint system on one of my cars last year. I put white stickers over the same blue paint you used. They still looked perfect after a whole year, and the white stickers still looked bright white as well. This is an awesome paint system. I did this on an Audi A8, and before I painted I did a little sanding on my calipers to smooth some coarse casting edges. Just something to think about depending on how the factory finish is on your cars calipers. Just that modification got me a lot of compliments and people asking me if that was a factory option on the car.

This looks brilliant I put some break caliper covers made of plastic 😱 big reget... so now waching this video I going to paint mine ..what you don is a brilliant job 👍🇬🇧

so cute lil man helping u out

The blue looks great next to the black. Lovely car.

Awesome!!!!! Cant wait to get on this

Nice, bro! Blue looks great.

This is good method!!! painting like this with the brush, not with spray! Cause with spray you can spread paint everywhere! Well done! Thank you for sharing

Good video, thank you for making it and helping us all out so we can see how easy it is to do!

They look great! 👍👍👍

This was simple i like how you painted the front and back. I havent seen a video where anyone takes the caliper off and paint it. Nice...

PA RU-vidrs in the house! Cool kit. I am researching now to do mine. Thanks for the info. Post a follow up to let us know how its holding up!

Great apprentice, he knows what he's doing.

It looks pretty good 👍🏿

Great job and easy also. I noticed that you buffed the inside of your rotors to remove the rust that builds up. Put rust oxidizer on them. It will turn them flat black and they will not rust again.

That blue is niiiiiiice!!!

Thank you. Great video.

Looks awesome.

awesome! you so Idea very smartest....i got it thank you so much. i learn now

Beautiful. Thanks

Cool project, nice . Way to go PA , from Jersey

Outstanding video brother!!!

I didn't see this video. I was going to make my own but just did all 4 calipers without the camera. It is true. Using hi-temp engine enamel with a parts brush worked great. I had to buy a spray can. Use gloves. Sprayed the paint into a jar and brushed on from there. Easy as can be and the paint flows out perfectly. It was in the upper 60's out of direct sun. 3 light coats and a 4th touch up coat. A little taping off to avoid any spots you don't want paint. Takes about an hour a caliper.

Looks great !

Thanks for the video !

Dang that was super nice !!!

Looks great 👍

Looks really sharp on that car with those wheels.

Much better than spraying! Less messy...

Thank you for leaving the link

Great video man, thank you

great video and awesome car!

Supporting your channel @Z-speed!

TOP MARKS MATE 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

I like simple !!! very nice !!!

Good job Bro!

Hi Roman, nice job! I would definitely take caliper out and put a bag on the rest to prevent paint where not necessary and some tape on the rubber parts of the caliper

nice, great job

Nice video, thanks for posting it. I f I was doing it I would not have painted the brake pads, and I would have masked off the Corvette lettering, painting that white or black.

Damm..that's looks good bro...very nice..

Great job

Definately the best method. Looks Great ! I saw you had help though, good thing he was there for you, huh ?🤣 Good instructional, man ! Thanks ! Wulfy

Looks good man. I just ordered mine not from the same brand but got another one coming in this week but I’ll be painting mine red

Looks good! I need the red version for my Audi S5 calipers! 🔥🔥🔥

good job 👌💙

Best video I’ve seen

thanks for the info

nice thanks good work

I’ve just watched 2 calliper painting vids, neither painter turned the steering wheel to improve front access

It looks cool in blue.

great !

Looks great ! Thx

Thanks! After watching this, I just ordered the same kit!

Way better than spraypainting .Good job sir !

That little kid is awesome 👌😇👍

Now that it’s a year later, does it still look good? I’m thinking of doing the same, unsure on how I want to go about it. That didn’t look bad at all as far as technique.

Dude, that looked sick…! Good luck..

Great helper. Future Corvette owner.

Thanks for the video,it was helpful. What did you use to paint the emblems etc blue?
