Engine Enamel... matte black...

It worked quite well... Sanded the arms a bit and then just sprayed...

Well firstly I used the Engine Enamel again... It's a heat resistant spray... I think up until 1200 degrees C.

And I Use a Thinners cloth to wipe the whole caliper to get all the dirt and grease off. then just taped up everything and sprayed, spray 2-3 coats for the best result.

I possibly want to spray them red... I'll do the rears in red next weekend and post it...
