Caliper Paint?

I've always used the Hummel enamel modeling paints. 2 small pots will do 3 coats on all 4 calipers, and at £1.10 a pot, that is cheap as chips:) My first Supra a had for 3.5 years and it still looked like new when I sold her. The secret is in the preparation as usual. Wash, fine wet&dry sandpaper, clean off with methylated spirits. allow to dry between coats. After, apply Supra decals. (from Gordon F on the board) and you got new brakes. Also you have a very large choice of colour's. So check out your local model shop. PS here is a couple of pics of mine in metallic blue. Also black Hammerite smooth is ideal for those rusty wheel hubs (same prep' as above)
