  • Excellent results
What I like: + Simple to use + Large can of brake clean + Good looking end result What I don't: - Included paint brush is worthless - It is pretty expensive for paint - Foam packing peanuts Fairly simple well packed kit, paint, hardener, crappy paintbrush, decals and a lots of little messy foam peanuts. Please keep in mind that this G2 Paint Kit only only one part of the entire painting process (the other is labor). If you've ever painted anything half decent you'll know that to get good looking results you want to put a lot of effort into preparation. What this means if you'll want to take your time getting your caliper surfaces spotless to give the paint a good surface to bond to. The kit includes a fairly large can of brake clean to help you do just that. You'll want to take a 3M Scotch Brite Heavy Duty Pad (not included) and work it until the metal is spotless. My calipers went from a graphite gray to stainless steel gray after a few brake clean / scrub cycles. If you don't do this well you risk having paint flake off in the future forcing you to redo the work. Important note: Use proper respiratory protection, brake dust is nasty and you'll be kicking it up while cleaning and you certainly don't want to breath it in. I used a 3M N95 (not included) particulate mask but recommend considering something stronger since the fumes from the solvents (brake clean + G2 paint) had me feeling pretty nauseous by the end of the experience. Once you've cleaned and optionally masked your surfaces you get to the fun part; painting. Pour the entire little jar of hardener into the G2 paint, shake vinously and wait for it to bubble and start applying. This starts a count down timer and leaving you with only 3 hours to finish. You should finish with plenty of time since you will probably spend a little over an hour coating all four corners (2 - 3 times). I *highly* recommend buying quality paint brushes because as soon as the hardener is mixed in with the paint it rapidly starts turning viscous and sticky the little paint brush that is supplied is poorly made and will not hold up as it gets thicker and stickier. I used some Behr's nylon paint brushes (not included) to give thin even coats. The first coat of G2 is one of the most important and you should definitely heed the instructions and apply a thin coat. The instructions say to leave 15 minutes between coats for drying time. This should be perfect for you to go around and paint the three other calipers and come back and do another coat. You can use a slightly heavier second coat to fill in gaps in coverage. I let the second coat sit for a little bit longer and while the paint claimed to be self-leveling there were tiny ridges / rivers. I took a 3M 150 grit sanding block (not included) and smoothed those out. I added one additional thin coat to this and according to the instructions you're done. If you have decals this would be a good time to add them in. Otherwise the wait 2 hours and put your wheels back on. If you purchased scotch brite pads like me for prep you might as well take one (not the same one soaked in solvent b/c brake clean will damage OEM clear coat) and clean the inside of the rims; clean rims help reflect light / glow that will enhance your freshly painted calipers. :) Important note: the instructions state you should give it 24 hours time to cure before driving, plan accordingly. ... show more

  • Excellents Colors
Color: Red
I bought this kit after a lot of research and reviews. It did not disappoint in the overall color and application of the paint. The cleaner is not very useful as it did not clean all the gunk away. I used a different solution to clean my calipers. The paint itself is very good and gives you enough time to dry. The brushes that came with the set was giving me streak so I used a softer brush and the finish came out excellent. Will definitely recommend it to anyone. ... show more

  • Decent product, take your time and apply THIN coats
Color: Gold
I can with confidence say the finish will be extremely durable. Color is absolutely great, almost a perfect match to OEM brembo gold. I cannot say I'm totally happy, but that was me going outside my norm. I read a ton of reviews and saw many people stating to toss it on thick after the initial coat. Wish I would've stuck to doing more extremely thin coats as it did not level out as much as I expected it to. Brush strokes in my opinion are noticeable and if you see any paint runs while applying, YOU WILL see the runs when finished. Best advice: use 3-5 thin coats versus 1 thin followed by 2 thicker coats. I'll likely end up having the calipers refinished. ... show more

  • 3 and a half years later, finally used it, perfect results
Color: Red
This product has an excellent shelf life, it went untouched in a non-climate-controlled garage for 3 and a half years and the paint job came out great! I fully jacked up the car with 4 jack stands. Including cleaning and jacking it took several hours to apply 2 coats of paint to my stock 2016 Focus ST brake calipers. Here's a few tips: 1. As everyone else says, the brush it comes with is... not great. I used a small synthetic brush made for acrylic and watercolor painting and it worked great at getting the job done without needing to tape anything up. Super cheap too. 2. If your car has been on the road for years, you might want to use a soapy cleaner (I used one meant to clean wheels) with a stainless steel brush to thoroughly remove brake dust and grime buildup. I did that followed by a heavy handed application with the brake cleaner the kit comes with to make sure no residue was left on the calipers. 3. I had so much paint leftover after I applied 2 coats, and it seemed unnecessary to do 3 coats. Next time I would have something prepped on the side to paint with the extra paint. It's high quality paint, it's a shame I had to waste like half the can. ... show more

Color: Red
I was looking for a DIY paint for my new carโ€™s calipers and found this one with great reviews. I bought a better brush to apply it but this was an excellent product!! It took me about an hour to do 3 coats of paint and I still had a little extra leftover. Self-leveled so you donโ€™t see any brush strokes and hardened very well. Waited 24 hours before putting the wheels back on and a year later, they look freshly painted still. Very easy to do! ... show more

  • Simply FABULOUS!
Color: White
My brakes never really seemed that great on my Infinity G35. Well, this kit totally changed my braking ability. The rotors look fantastic on my car, the stopping power is 2X better! Brakes dust is almost zero. Buy these wile you can. They are simply superb.
