Those who have painted their brake calipers, what paint did you use?
I found that there is a spray and a brush on type. Anyone use the G2 system? Is there anything better or easier out there?<ul><li><a href="http://www.streetbeatcustoms.com/brakcalpain.html">G2 system</a></li></ul>

Brush is easier...no need to mask. Duplicolor is 'same' as G2 at 1/2 the cost.

I used G2. Check my pic post.
15k on my painted calipers. Had my wheels off the other day and they look perfect. No chips or cracks at all despite probably thousands of heat cycles. I coated a test piece of metal in my garage to test durability. I can hit it with a hammer and it won't mar. There may be cheaper systems but I would use G2 again and again.
