Mell30uk Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 i used i nice big wire brush and lots of elbow grease !!! i also used red hamarite paint cos its loads cheaper than caliper paint plus it strechs better works a treat and looks good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted August 4, 2004 Author Share Posted August 4, 2004 well i actually did it after the first post so i wouldn't worry too much... used blue hammerite and it worked a treat, didn't have to use any brake cleaner, just a quick scrub with a wire brush to get excess crap off here's another question.... what happens if i don't put my front wheelarch liners back?
