Default HELP painting calipers!

Can anyone give me a link to an instructional guide on how to paint calipers on a 00' Camaro SS, or can anyone give me instructions and a list of materials needed.

You can buy one of those duplicolor caliper paint kits from Advance Auto Parts, and it will have everything you need. All you really need to do is clean them with some brake cleaner, let them dry, mask off your rotor and spindle, and paint away. I bought this kit and for 15 bucks, you cant beat it. It comes with ceramic caliper paint, brake cleaner, stirring rod for the paint, and a brush. Heres a pic of my results.

Did the same kit 2 days ago. Super easy, dries really fast. No removing calipers or lines. Tape off a few things, paint, i let mine sit for a full day.
