How much was the halfords stuff mate? Just had a look on Motorworlds site and they sell the Foliatec stuff for £20, seems steep that.;) | |

if i was you just go to halfords and get the proper caliper paint, you will probably pay a couple of £ extra but it would be worth it. Mine came out well good. I did them about 5 months ago and they still look quality. | |

Didn't think hammerite was a high temp paint?? (1000 degrees +) | |

Look through this folder for "How I painted my calipers and drums" explains everything. | |
