Caliper Paint

[ODDs]

I used G2, which was the most highly recommended for long-term durability that I could find. It is brush on, so there is no overspray risk, and it dries smooth and glossy. I am very happy with how it turned out.

I've used a few different brands over the years, and G2 is the only brand that holds up for me. All the others eventually needed to be removed, and then I had to use G2 over top. It's awesome stuff!

Did one rear to see how it looks. Need a better outside pic but i THINK I like it. I like the contrast on my GCM.

Clean, sand, 3 coats high temp primer and 4 coats of color.

Did not like that color so just went with the red G2 kit. You can tell its very durable putting it on and dries with a high gloss. I like it better than I thought I would.

Did you removing the calipers/brake lines/bracket or just masked up everything? How did you paint the edges of the brackets?

Not my Jeep, but I used VHT Caliper Paint to do my old Camaro, looked good and held up for years with not issue

I never saw an option for that, but mine came out with a gloss finish. I did not remove anything and just masked with tape.

You won't get all the way inside every crevice without removing it all. But even up close you can't tell. If your carefull and take your time it will look great.
