Callipers:
A way to spice up the look and at the same time protects the callipers from corrosion.
The Calliper Paint System (G2- Manufacturing, Inc. Colorado Springs) features aircraft quality paint, available in six different high gloss colours, Red, Yellow, Blue, Silver, Black, & Purple. The paint is heat resistant up to 932 degrees; this paint won't start running into your brake pads, it also seals and protects against corrosion. Hupcaps.com-

Brake dust and dirt will not adhere to the calliper surface since adding the paint. The kit includes everything you'll need to get the job done, besides paint you'll also get reactor (special bonding agent), high tech calliper cleaner, mixing sticks, and a brush. Do not attempt to paint the rotor contact surface
Tip- cover any lettering that you don’t want painted with a thin coat of Vaseline

Tks. and the lettering tip is great advice! Have you tried this product? I bought a similar type which used ceramic paint, but it started peeling later. It was one of those famous car paint brands. Used it on my Supra - I was not impressed.

I will only recommend what I have first-hand experience of using and those that produce or exceed the results I expect

I use Rejex applied with a make up brush and wipe with a faom pad. Seems to keep calipers clean without spotting. I use the same technique on the painted part of rotors. On cars I've owned for 3-4 years I have never seen any rust on the painted surface of rotors.
