ecp48 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Anyone have any idea how much heat is transferred into the caliper brackets? I would like to paint the Maxima Brackets (presently a nice shade of rust), which I am installing on my 280Z this weekend. Do I need a High Temp Paint or can I use Rustoleum? For that matter will high temp aluminum paint hold up on the calipers? ecp48 1978 280Z Running 1976 280Z Garage Queen 1974 260Z Parts & Ferrous Oxide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxilary Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 there won't be that much heat transferred to the bracket. If you want to be on the safe side, go to pepboys and pick up a can of brake caliper paint for $7, they're rated to 900* F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
