calipar paint

I was wondering if any high temperature exhaust paint can be used on the calipars. I wanted to paint the calipars gloss black along with the exhaust. Any ideas?

Yes any high temp paint will work. Some are better then others however. I had ok luck with the caliper paint & the engine enamel paint.

That high temp exhaust paint usually doesn't have the most durable finish. Your calipers are inevitably going to collect a lot of filth and theres a good chance that a fair amount of the paint will come off if you try to clean them.

Just something to keep in mind.

Do they come in a spray can form? I dont mind spending up to 40 bucks for the paint as long as it has a nice black gloss finish and I can use it for both exhaust and calipars.

Would it be suitable for the exhaust piping too?
