DUDE, ITS 2 BOLTS... PULL OFF THE CALIPER.

I just wanna know why everyone in the comments are watching a how to video since everyone is an expert 🤔

So this is what Blake Griffin does during the offseason

Followed this to the T yesterday and my calipers turned out great. Just one tip is that make sure when you use the garbage bag to cover the roters and what not, make sure its not touching the caliper thats going to be painted because it can cause uneven adhesion of the paint with the garbage bag and caliper resulting in unevenness. Otherwise great video. And those thinking how much to wait between each spray? 10 mins.

"Hi, I'm Johnny Knoxville, and this is Brake Caliper Painting..."

Looks awesome Evan :)

Awesome video man.. Straight to the point. Very helpful for my future project

Off all the caliper paint vids I’ve seen yours was by far the best and most comprehensive one! Good job! Looks amazing! The only suggestion I would add is this. Once you have tge wheels off, between paint coats. Go ahead and do a good wheel cleaning job, especially on the inside! This is an area that rarely gets a good scrubbing! I will share this!

The best how to video i have seen for this so far! Great work! New subscriber

Good job man. One tip I use is to have a hair dryer or heat gun on hand to speed up the whole drying process. I even pre heat the caliper before I start spraying. Also cover the whole car with old sheets, that mist travels. Top job though.

Thanks Evan my nissan looking good now

Brilliant, easy-to-follow video buddy :-) 10/10 thanks for posting!!

Perfect!!!! It is exaclty how I wanted to do... and I came to see if some one had good results... and that is your video!!!

Came out awesome!

Shit, forgot my burrito. Gotta do the whole job over again. 😤

beauutiful car man, loved the vid :) I personally would have removed the calipers but either way, it came out awesome bro.

Awesome vid .. Definitely will be redoing by calipers like this ... Turned out awesome

In the time it took you to prep and wrap everything, you could have taken out the callipers and brackets, it takes 20 mins

Sir, you gave me hope that I can paint my gaudy Saab 9-3 calipers without removing them. I tip my hat to you

Looks awesome. I wanna do this for my 3kgt. I had a hard time figuring what color i want. This will help tremendously

Very clear prepping & painting 411...straight to the point...excellent job bro. Dark gray/ black & yellow....sweet colors! Cheers from NYC 🗽

Chris Pontius from Jackass showing us how it's done😆😆😆

18k and counting! Nice work!

I have some calipers to paint and I know how to do it with confidence. Thank you veeeeeeery much "throtl"👍.

It looks great!! Good job and thank you for your video

Seems odd to me that you said that you already replaced the rotors and pads....ummmmm is it me or, should you have done it when you had it off???? 🤔🤔🤔

You can hardly see the brake calipers

Excellent job! I'll be doing mine red this summer!

Awesome Job on the Calipers Bro. Good choice of colour too man . They came out Sick ! 🤪🤙 Jay

Awesome video saved me alot of time and hassle. Although all four wheels took me around 7 hours, your video was a great help. Keep it up mate 💪

Yes! Good stuff! Thanks for this! How many cans of paint did you need?

Awesome....👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Thank you so much for sharing this video to us..🙏🏻 Stay safe and stay healthy for everyone 🙏🏻😊

Good work man, can’t wait to try this on mine 😏

Why are you painting the brake pads

yal are RUTHLESS..the dude is showing an alternative, probably not the best but maybe some people might not feel comfortable pulling calipers or know how to..stay in your own lane people, if you dont like it speak your mind if you must but do you. pull dont pull w.e works best for YOU. anyways nice car and nice video. 🔞💯

Great video, your e36 m3 is a dream of mine!

Man that was superb, thumbs up!!!!

No way you doin all that with some lil badass kids running around😂

I'd recommend a dust mask 👍🏼

Hey thanks for this great video it was great the way explained everything was great

Nice video, good explain and the BMW..uuff fantastic. Regards from Mexico

Take off the caliper, let it sit on a 5 gallon bucket so there's no tension on the brake line and voila it is done! This way you can work on the caliper easily and clean it really well and you don't even have to bleed the brakes . For those saying you HAVE to bleed the brakes, you don't. Just don't disconnect the brake line from the caliper and cover the brake line up!!

"Easiest" way my ass, take out the caliper and don't disconnect the brake line, then spray paint. Way better ending product and easier

Car looks awesome man, clean af. Thumbs up!

The garbage bag incision was a great bit of advice. Thanks! My calipers came out great

I wish I had a garage I'm living in an apartment complex doing this outside people might think I'm crazy 😂

I’m a hair stylist and you using the term “elasticity” just got me GOIN

Nice work and excellent video. Just seems so tedious, but it definitely came out sweet looking!

great job!! and thank you! doing my honda next week!

Beautiful machine.

Damn dude killing it with the views and subs!

Finnaly someone that uses Veorra music in their video, keep up the great work man :)

Mate that looks awesome, nice job.

Get em dad!

Looks good...here comes the but. You did mask off but there will be a ton of over spray on the top surfaces of the car. Clay bar should will help remove. Just a fyi if others try it...you will get over spray on anything unprotected especially if you're doing in the garage 😉

Finished product came out dope! I think there is an easier way to do it, but hey you got it done and it looks good!

Awesome! Great Video! Thank you! I had a 1995, M3, in Dakar Yellow. super sweet car. I really miss that rig. But I definitely like my M4 better :).

The hole car looks awsome please do a video where you talk about the prices of the parts. Also pleeeease change go for a racing seat and harness

SHREKERMAN!!!

Nice looks great , good tire choice Falken

Clean work! I love to diy on my calipers too.

Why not take the calliper off and support it. That way you can paint the whol calliper evenly and not have any get on the rotor

A couple of things I want to share with you. I think it would’ve been as easy and yielded a much higher quality job to remove the calipers or paint them before installing. Secondly, while you’re right about lighter and more numerous coats you were a bit on the extreme. Your coats are super light and you’re spraying a lot of waste into the air. 2-3 coats should be plenty. Nice video!

Thank you so much for this video I was just thinking how to do this and I saw this and I've Redone my calipers much love my man keep it up

Great looking calipers, nice job as well. Patience is the key. Yellow,... that was my 1st choice for my 92' Maxima SE

Why does every single RU-vid video begin with the same damn phrase "what's up guys"

Good job man..your car..your way👍

Nice video someone at work told me to remove the caliper IAm glad I've found this handy

Great tips and excellent prep work

To professional for me, I don't even take the wheel off😁

The design of that wheel hides most of the time and effort spent...

Brilliant video mate

Thank you, great video, nice ride. I had 1997 Daytona violet M3

lit vid

This is a good example of how to half-ass this task. Not all advice is good advice on RU-vid.

This helped so much 💯💯

That's clutch asf. Bleeding the brakes get old after while I thought about using a shoe box but this is much more efficient thanks brotha .

Overkill with the bags on the wings that are being held by external screws but no face mask despite indoor spraying 😏

Please... god... don’t paint you calipers this way....

Awesome video real helpful as I want to do the same on my 2006 ML and I’m going to do it just like this! Can I just ask on a separate note how you find driving with these spacers bolted to your hub? I want to also to purchase a set of these to pop my 22” rims out for a wider slammed look..... hope to hear back dude many thanks in advance👍🏼👍🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I found it interesting and informative. My question, wouldn't it be a good idea to start out with a good iron remover first then proceed?

Whoa ... you're a rough crowd .. Rodney Dangerfield. * Paint on the pad ... who cares, it won't hurt anything. Next time he "pad slaps" they're no longer painted. Would I settle for that or painting the hardware, no way. * Paint while on car vs pull and paint. Personal decision based on tool set, skillz set, mind set, and car. Based on car, and rims .. he's fine. * Duplacolor vs "brake paint" vs powder coating - again, personal choice with $$ to spend, time and skillz. I've seen duplacolor 1yr, 2yrs down the line ... They look like what it cost. I've used the expensive mixed epoxi-paint kits and it looked great 4 years later. Powder coating is a tad more expensive, lasts nearly forever. (longer than the calipers will) Personally, I removed mine, clamped the hose, (they have a round nosed vise-grip for this, just don't do it to SS braided hoses) used a die grinder with a 3M pad to take off all the flashing on the calipers and brackets castings (pet peeve). Then had a local shop powder coat them (which you can do yourself for under $150). But now, when it comes time to "replace" the calipers I'll want to rebuild vs replace as it's $50-$100 bucks per pair of calipers to get them powder coated. What I actually did to make the best use of time, was when it was time to replace my calipers, I ordered a set, prep'd them, powdered coated them, and then on a saturday of my choice, installed them. Bleeding brakes is not rocket science ... watch the vids and test on a quiet street afterwards ... your good to go .. (or stop!) Some people choose to not paint the bracket. (part between spindle and caliper) My personal choice is to not paint the hardware or pads as I like the contrast. (my preference) I do 100% of the caliper and bracket even tho I know you can't see it. Its a half-ass'd job IMO and I would know. And that matters to me.

I miss your mustache Evan D:

Sick color combinations love it.

You guys most definitely need more how too like this on the channel! They are super helpful.

Take the calipers off. Don’t do it this way.

If I could offer only tip for anyone doing spray painting: wear a face/nose mask

This is sickkkk🔥

I love this. To the other guy that says take them off it’s just two bolts. It’s not just two bolts if you take them off you either hang them or remove the caliper totally them you got break fluid everywhere. This is the way to do it. This is the way I’m doing mine. Great video and thanks a ton.

Dude, It takes literally loosening 2 bolts to get em off, to paint.

Calipers look good but I would not paint them this way. I would take them off completely tape whatever needs to be covered Etc.

Got the thumb up like for just the breakfast burrito lol great vid

Good shit mate! Cheers!

Much easier just doing it with a little paint brush,saves on covering up the car with bags

I guess I'll just leave mine as is..

Hell yeah brother, looks great.

Nice job man, ill try to do mine soon on my insignia
