Painting your brake calipers
when i change my pads and rotors soon I want to paint my calipers and drums. I don't want to hear rice this and rice that. I just want to know what paint to use and how to go best about doing it. I'll probably paint them red. i might do white, but i have a feeling they are going to be gard to keep clean, maybe I'll do it anyways it would look real nice. I've got some time to think about it. Anyways..... help??????

RE: Painting your brake calipers
I was going to take off the caliper completely and you know, sand it, and degrease it, and wirebursh it, and wire wheel it, and all that other good stuff. Should I primer it, and how many coats should I use? Any brand of paint in particular to use? Thanks!
EDIT: I'll probably do a DIY for it too!
