I know Pepboys had them at one point. I bought a kit at the one by the McKinley Mall a few years back.

It was a couple years back… but Jan Cen had some there, call them. I would check with K&S too or possibly Kustom Works or SCAP.

Mark/Justin, the G2 stuff is a kit that is not just paint. Plus it is a brush on appllication. It is easier to work with than spraying in some cases. The kit comes with cleaning solution and prep materials, brushes, etc…it really is a nice package.

You are right to an extent. High temp paint works fine too but the brake kits are typically solvent resistant so you can clean them easily.

G2 is nicer, I don’t think any local places carry it, I’ve been keeping an eye out for it for a while, but am too lazy to order it on-line.

G2 is by far the best caliper paint out there…

its a catalyized epoxy paint… it dries even and glossy and stands up to any chemicals/salt after its applied…

I used to put it on my rotor hats to keep them from rusting, and they still looked brand new after 2 years…

Just want to black out the wifeys calipers, the previous owner painted them red and it looks like shit, i also had to grind away some of the caliper to clear the wheels after i put in new pads

So would it be a waste to use this stuff and then use rattle can clear to spray over a sticker?
