Hello,

I have a spare set of calipers and am going to refurbish them, the mechanicals are straightforward and no challenge but I want the paint finish to be as good as possible and long lasting, I know I could send them away to get fully refurbished but don't have £500 knocking around spare.

Preference would be a two pack epoxy but can't source G2 over here 9USA) and unable to find a UK alternative, plenty of foliatech and E-Tech etc about but wonder about their longevity, realise that its all about the prep and not afraid to do the work (have access to full garage equipment and sand blaster)

Any personal experiences / recommendations welcomed

Hammerite paint works ok for my disco, or kit’s of various colours are available at Halfords or Euro Carparts.

live used the POR system with cleaner metal prep and anti rust works very well, not used this caliper paint but will do the trick based on my experience with the other on chassis , axles etc

I think unless they are brand new, or properly sand blasted it’s a waste of time. It won’t last long and they will rust out again. Having said that, if you live where no salt is used on the roads it might last a lot longer.

I've used Tractol enamel over Bonda-Primer for years on calipers and suspension components in general, IME it lasts well, and won't break the bank ...
