I hereby forbid you to ever type the word "bump" again.



9 minutes? Give someone a chance to answer! You shouldn't even be bumping a topic that is already at the top of the forum anyway.

Crap, sorry I wasn't on here all day to answer this within the 9 min. time limit :rolleyes:





Oh wait, I don't have the answer, sorry :tongue:

Someone will chime in with an answer, you have to have patience man :)

[Kaioshin]

Dude....No.

The inside of your cabin will reach 200F on a hot enough day.

It will last maybe a month before it chips.

I have used normal Krylon paint on my calipers on both my cougar and my cavalier and they both have not chipped or bubbled or anything. They both seem to be holding up great:shrug:

[Comando489]

so u think i should try it? or what type of paint should i use? thanks guys...

[james99]

caliper paint? they sell all different colors at walmart and auto part stores. i think it involves more than just spraying it on though, the kit i saw had 2 or 3 cans you had to use.

[Comando489]

alright i will try there... thanks!

[Moraki]

The kit i baught consited of a spray can basic brake cleaner, and a can of caliper paint that was brush on. Thick stuff that evened it self out. Brushes can suck... BUT then again i didnt have to mask anything off or worry about over spray on the body.

[Comando489]

thank you for the picture! it looks great btw

[Comando489]

was this a spray on kit or paint on kit?

[CougarKat]

Its a paint on kit.
You brush it on which I think is much easier.
