    Calipers will get hot during braking.

    So not just any paint will work.

    You definately need high temp paint at least. But so far I only seen black high temp spray. You can check out with those hardware or paint shop and asked for high temp spray. They should have it. See if they've got other colour selection.

    I do not recommend to spray. May look good for a short while, but will be very ugly when the paint starts to flake.

    Besides, you need to be very very careful not to spray onto moving parts, in case it causes malfunctions (e.g. dust seals).

    ah gua lane (dont know if spelling correct). JB, Malaysia.
    Accident can happen anytime, anywhere.
    However ask yourself, do you want to fall at 120km/h or 60km/h?

    think dont spray, later spray on your brake disc all those then you can kiss your braking power goodbye. if u insist gotta go get the high temp sprays. now got a lot of colour. minimum you must get 1000 farenheit and above (500 degree celsius). Otherwise it wont sustain harsh weather and high speed braking. the spray works will crack.
