ahh. is there any good caliper paint that is resistant to brake parts cleaner?
well i painted my rear calipers with some Krylon Rust Tough Enamel PRIMER. and some Dupli-Color Ceramic Engine Enamel PAINT (red).. and i let them set for about 2 days. and today i was about to put them together (i was rebuilding them) so i sprayed out the piston bore with brake parts cleaner.. and next thing i knew... all the paint was starting to bubble up and stuff. and it was coming off!!!! i used STP heavy duty brake parts cleaner.. and it like stripped off the paint!!!! the weird thing is though. is that i painted my front calipers with the same Dupli Color paint. but without the primer. and i have sprayed them down with brake parts cleaner before. and i only had a tiny bit of paint come off. it didn't bubble up or anything.. so is there any paint that is resistant to brake fluid and brake parts cleaner? or should i of prepped the calipers differently??

I'm not sure on the answer to your post...so TTT
but are you going to make it to the Houston Gathering II on the 28th of December? It's becoming larger and larger...a guy or 2 from Lousiania is coming. Just thought you'd like to know. Check the SWMG board for more details.
