cheers mate, left it over night so the paint would set, im about 2 start paintin the calipers metalic purple ill post up a few before and after shots when im done
ok here we go, all in all took me 2 days (2 calipers per day) as i left em on and also left it 2 dry over night, didnt come out 100% the way i wanted it as i couldnt find a high temp primer nor did i use a sealerbut im still quite happy with the result.

erm i quickly did one of my caliper/roundthingwithfourboltscrewingthings red the other day.. got paint every where! n i was like *&^% it, n like got paint on the brake pads, grrr ... and on the rotors, grrr and forgot bout it and paint dryed before i could wipe it.. grrr
* allow plenty of time to get good results! *
i will do the rest when better weather n with a brush!
yea i dont blame ya, i was readin the can and its like apply in temp no colder then 20C lol its like 10C! in melb these days not mention all the rain which is startin 2 get used 2 again, but yea u gotta take your time with it do it right and you'll get it right
btw that roundthingwithfourboltscrewingthings its called the rotor lol
danau: one thing to learn about painting is that a good job comes more from the preparation, not so much the painting. take your time to prepare the surface and mask surrounding areas properly

i definetly agree with that, take your time 2 get all the crap off the capilers and rotor (especially the calipers theres a lot of build up on those) a good hand drill with a good drill bit should do the job then just use a bit of steel wool 2 get into those places u cant reach
