If Anyone's Considering Painting Their Calipers This May Be Of Interest.wen't In Halfords'' How Much For A Caliper Paint Kit Mate''

I Asked,''23 Pounds But We Do Our Own Brand'' Came The Reply. Now The Kit Was A Foliatec One With Cleaner,primer,brush Etc,the Halfords Paint Was Just That,but A Quarter Ltr Tin,so Armed With

A Tin Of Brake Cleaner And A Brush Did All 4 Corners Today-and Only Used About Half Inch Out Of The Tin.results--brilliant --cost

Of Paint--9.99 And Loads Left :d

oh tits, I got two tins of that stuff the other day, didnt realise I would use so little, guess I'm taking one back then!

 

Got any pics of the finished article?

TRIED THAT DUDE,PROB IS THE PICS ARE TOO BIG,I NEED TO SCALE EM DOWN TO 250MEG,AND I A'INT GOT A CLUE! :confused:

250 meg !! thats more than a third of a cd!

all you gotta do m8 is open the pictures in a drawing package and resize them and save as a .jpg

if still too big note down how much they have shrunk by and adjust more

hope this helps

My mate used plain old Hammerite on his Focus ST170 and the results are excellent. Don't know how it compares price-wise to the Halfords stuff though.
