Brembo chip

Does anyone know of a site to purchase the proper touch -up paint for a chip on the Brembo caliper? I'ts not that large , but I notice it when cleaning the wheel. Thanks

Re: Brembo chip

Goto a honda dealership, ask for touch up paint for that gold civic they sold for a little while (not sure if they still do, sometime back in 2001/02 or so), i've been told its the same exact color.

Re: Brembo chip

Mine chipped too.. Called Infiniti dealer *no pait available*.. called Infiniti customer service *no paint available*.. called Brembo directly here at work and they do not sell paint either. Guess were out of luck. There might be a model paint that comes close but I didnt get a chance to check it out this weekend. Will let you all know when I find a match :-)

Re: Brembo chip

No paint available becasue it is powder coated. Honda Inca gold i think is the best you are going to find.

Re: Brembo chip

The Honda paint might not be able to handle the extreme heat generated by the brakes. Just a thought though correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Brembo chip

I would not paint my entire caliper with it, but to cover up ugly chips and to prevent rusting, i think its the only thing that matches. Unless some one finds a high temp, glossy, gold, metalic enamel that matches, let me know.

Re: Brembo chip

The honda inca paint is near perfect match. It should be able to withstand the heat of the calipers if it's just used to fill nicks and chips.

Re: Brembo chip

I agree wid the others. Inca gold from honda is a perfect match and I used it to fill in a chip on my Brembo's. I'm guessing it can withstand the high heat, because it's still on there.

Re: Brembo chip

Thanks for the info on the paint. I'm going to need it soon so I can touch-up prior to remounting the summer wheels next month.
