SPARTAN VI

Nice tut Tom. I don't think I have a jack in my garage.. might have to use the jack thats supplied with the spare and lift one wheel at a time? [:@]

I bought Duplicolor caliper paint from autozone. It comes in a can not a spray so that you don't have to remove the calipers. Worked great but don't use a brush! It made streaks and was hard to keep even so instead I used a cotton shirt and using my finger applied it evenly on the caliper. It came out great! I used the jack that came w/ the car and although it takes time it does work.

I did mine with a spray can and it came out perfect. I'm getting some pictures soon so I'll post them soon. I really had no problems with the spray and it only cost $3.50 plus I bought some brake cleaner. Saved lots of money and looks great.
Question, does anyone know where to get letter or stickers to put on the caliper?

And I heard that when painting the calipers from a can, the best brush to use is like a slant edge sponge tip.

Thanks a million for the sticker/logo info. Ordered them today.

I used paint from the eastwood company, calipers stayed on car, very smooth finish, good 40.00 mod

@enog, I have a Satin Silver w/black bullets, red calipers look good

Yeah, you can mask it off and paint. Use the highest temp engine enamel (1500 degree) you can find, and use 4 or 5 coats. Remember to let them get tacky between coats, and clean the caliper really well. Use break cleaner and maybe even a light grit sand paper.
