Best Caliper Paint?
Any thoughts on the best kind of caliper paint and place to get it? I think I want to go with red or gold....can't decide.

I used a high temp spray paint from Advance Auto. Worked fine. Interested in this G2 paint though. Any links guys?
EDIT: Found the site; http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/g2/caliper_paint.jsp
Think I might order some next month. Hopefully the weather will be warm enough.

+1 on G2. I painted a set of calipers 5 yrs ago with just one coat. The paint has survived the salty Midwest winters with no special upkeep. The paint is still glossy. No chips, flakes, or cracks. Good stuff.

Is there a difference in the "High Temp" & "Ultra High Temp?"

I did duplicolor brush on in black, $11 on sale at pepboys with the cleaner brush and whatnot. I did not use any clear or anything, it thickens up well and one kit will easily do all four all over.
It worked well, after 12k miles I only had one chip on one caliper. One thing though, Corsair did his in red and after a few track days, they are pretty much black now.
