Thats why I painted the cal's while they were still on the car. It might be tacky or rice but my cal's arn't falling off. hehe j/k

Buy the brush on caliper paint. The spray on stuff sucks (it's cheap though), but you'll find yourself having to redo the entire job down the rd instead of just touching up nicks from rd debris.

brush on caliper paint, eh? You can do that with them still on?

 

[hixtrix]

Yep, If yer careful and use a quality brush. The kit I bought was around 50$, but well worth every penny... I've used the spray on before, but after trying the brush on I will never go back!
