try a wire brush or sandpaper, then i would recommend painting them with the G2 caliper paint kit. Tirerack sells the kit.

I will ask a paint shop to do it for $100 max.

Does anyone know a good body shop in Queens NYC?

Many thanks!

why? It is very easy to do. All you have to do is remove the wheels, no need to remove the brakes.

I work Monady to Friday. Some over-time on Saturday.

I don't want to waste the entire Sunday for just painting the breaks.
