Default Remove paint

Has anyone removed paint from your calipers? I need to redo mine.
And what grit sandpaper do I use?
Or do I just paint over them.

Air craft stripper works great.....but that's where you need to be careful.... MASK YOUR CAR OFF.....you don't want any overspray (if you use the spray cans from WalMart).....
