haha thanks for the diy, the only problem is I have no idea what those parts are referring to, looks like i'll have to do some research. How much does this cost to do? including if I have to buy all the sprays and cleaners, etc.?

i actually found these old instructions online...could I just follow his instructions? Just make sure I clean with a 400 grit sand paper and break cleaner? And Duplicolor one from Kragen, Semi-gloss in red? Or maybe black...hmmm, I've got a 04 OB, what color do you guys think would look nice?

same ****.


Don't effect my braking at all.

Just looks ghay.

I'm at the point where I either need to resurface my rotors or get a new ones so I'll be painting mine.



This are actually my stock ones. I have been rocking Stoptech slotted ones for past 20k+ and same thing on those too.

Red? This thread was posted to discuss the rust on rotors, you're speaking of painting the calipers. The instructions I gave via the long **** run on sentence was for painting/removing the rust on the rotors.

Do a search for painting calipers. If you still are unclear on what to do (though the vid you posted is pretty much what you can do) PM me and I will walk you through it.

I did the paint on my stoptech rotors back in Janurary and have not seen the rust return since then.
