just got my new front brakes today. and am going to install them. just wondering what is the best method to paint the calipers. figured it would be best to do it now while i have easy access to them. is there any brand of caliper paint better than others? what do you all think? i want them blue!
thanks guys for our help.

i use the duplicolor caliper painting kit. It comes with a bursh, paint etc to mask off the areas you want, plus its got a brush so you can paint it evenly and dont have to worry about any drips or runs. Mine came out pretty good

I dont sugest using any spray can ones though, they tend to chip and fade. I did my fronts originaly with a spray can, they lasted 2 years but looked like crap.
