Caliper Repaint--Or what I did on my Xmas Vacation

detroitmasoMember

My calipers were sitcking a bit so I pulled all four before I put my car away for the winter. I cleaned up the outsides then popped out the pistons and cleaned the bores and pistons up and reassambed everything with new seals and boots. The outsides were looking pretty rough still so I decided to paint the calipers in gloss black. Then, I had some custom Detomaso decals made up and applied them, and sprayed over them with a high temp clear paint. I filled in the Girling "G" on the front callipers with a high temp epoxy filler before painting.

Anyway, I thought they came out nice, so I thought I would share.
