lots of paper and masking tape and caliper cleaned

1 coat of paint

more coats of paint

lost count how many coats of paint

paper removed and pads back in

wheel back on and DONE!

 

Massive disks tomorrow and caliper refurb coming soon.

Nice one pal :D Looks great :D

They look nice mate.

 

Did you not wire brush them first with a fast drill ?. this would have made them a lot smoother rather than the rough surface they have.

 

 

Also if you want to, take a flat file and rub down the Nissan logo and it will come out looking very nice.

Far too lazy for the wire brush thing, not sure what to do with the nissan logo, think i may just leave them all 1 colour, dont want to give the paint any opportunity to start flaking over time.

WOW look @ the deal on that laptop @ pc world!!

Yeah, a simple nail file (don't tell the wife) is what you should have used. An angle grinder is a little overkill :D.
