    Default [Brisbane] Where to get calipers painted

    Apologies if this is the wrong forum but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a place in Brisbane to get my calipers painted and / or how much I should expect to pay to have this done.

    I know this is also a DIY job, but would prefer to have someone who actually knows what they're doing playing around with my brakes

    a spray painter/powder coater isn't a mechanic. so i wouldn't trust them playing with your brakes either...

    leave the calipers on the car, clean them with brake cleaner and then mask up around them. once you've done that, give them a few coats with some enamel paint.

    the best way is definitely powder coating but it will mean removing all of them and bleeding the brake system when you re-fit them.
