What brands of caliper paint works the best ?

Should a primer be applied first and what type of primer is used for the calipers ?

Should a brush on or spray paint be used for best results and longevity results ?

Are these paints resistance to chemicals like Brakeleen , brake fluid ?

Is there a s pacific color that matches the factory red ?
 
These are some of the caliper paints I’ve been researching .. reviews are a pain in the butt trying to make a decision :confused:..
Need to know about true and tried for longest lasting and chemical blah blah resistant ..
some say use a primer , some say don’t some say even water will screw up the paint , peeling , color mismatch and different tints ..
????????????????????????????????? :(

As an alternative mine cleaned up real nice with a brass wire rotary brush in a drill.Brought the colour back.
Hmmm , didn’t think of that ,,, think I’ll give it a try first .. maybe a buffing wheel and some rubbing/ polishing compound will shine them up . The powder coating looks solid just faded pretty bad. If not the wire brush will still prep them for paint .. like killing 2 birds with one stone hahaha thanks
