Paint your brake calipers to keep them looking good and rust free. This video will give you the outline of what you would need to do to paint your own brake calipers. I go over the tools and supplies you will need, the different steps it will take to get a good finish and you can see what the results look like. Here is the spray paint I used (It comes in other colors too)

I'd have to say it's a useful video. I personally have had plans to do this for a while. And I'm kinda glad I watched. I'm more of a collision repair guy but it's been about 10 years so it's always a little useful brushing up on a few things I kinda let slide.

Title of Video: . Fast and Easy
ChrisFix: . You want to take your time. Sand. Use several products. Let sit. Take your time. Paint. Let it sit for 30 minutes. Now do the other side.
Me: Bro, you don't have to take the caliper off.

I took my calipers off and used a wire wheel on a grinder, a rotozip with wire wheel and then sanded a bit with a multitool at 120 grit. Probably got to a finish and coverage a little better than this but less than Corvette level.

There was still rust on the caliper. Wont that eventually cause problems with the paint? Or will it be fine because now the metal has no contact with oxygen?
reply

It is impossible to keep rust off of calipers and rotors if you you live in the upper Midwest where they use salt brine on the highways in the winter months.
reply

Would this help with keeping the calipers in good condition for a while? Would it protect them at all and is there any benefit besides visual?
reply

I have brand new calipers that haven't been installed yet am I able to just 600 grit sand them brake clean and alcohol them and paint them
reply

Be careful everyone it's a sugestion only soapy water I saw worked faster way faster & toothbrushes & after sandpaper
