Caliper Painting
Brake caliper painting is a cosmetic process that involves applying paint to the brake calipers of a vehicle. The purpose of this service is to enhance the appearance of the brake calipers, giving them a customized and more eye-catching look.
Typically, brake caliper painting is done to change the color of the calipers to match the overall aesthetic of the vehicle or to make them stand out. It can be a popular choice for car enthusiasts who want to add a personal touch to their vehicle’s appearance.
The process usually involves several steps:
01 Preparation
The calipers are thoroughly cleaned and degreased to ensure proper adhesion of the paint.
02 Masking
Areas that should not be painted, such as brake lines or other sensitive components, are carefully masked off to protect them from the paint.
03 Painting
A high-temperature resistant paint specifically designed for calipers is applied to the surface. The paint can come in various colours and finishes, such as gloss, matte, or metallic.
04 Curing
The painted calipers are left to dry and cure. This often requires baking in an oven or using heat lamps to ensure a durable finish.

It’s important to note that brake caliper painting is purely a cosmetic procedure and does not affect the performance or functionality of the brakes. However, it is essential to choose a high-quality paint that can withstand the high temperatures generated by braking and avoid any interference with brake components.
If you are considering brake caliper painting, it is recommended to consult with a professional or experienced technician who can provide guidance on colour choices, paint options, and ensure a proper application that maintains the safety and integrity of the braking system.
