Polish them mate, and they'll restore the colour. I promise you, they'll be as good as new.

stupid question but how do you go about painting them? I bought some caliper paint ages ago but haven't got round to it yet... do they have to come off? if so how do i go about doing it so the brakes don't fail lol

all you need to do is take your front wheels of one at a time or both up to you and paint the brake caliper do atleast 2 coat's

takes about 20min each one that taking your time

So you dont have to take em off to do a good job?

^ He did say to dry btw :lol:

Cheers mind!

 

[rad_brad]

best to leave them overnight to dry completely

and ii left bout an hour between each coat
