This is an AMAZING kit. Works perfectly. As Im sure is already stated(didnt read all posts), the included brush is crap. Ive used this kit before and its the ONLY WAY to do calipers. I did all 4 calipers with 4 coats and STILL had nearly 1/4 can left.

I might actually end up using it and see how long it lasts. Powder coating is a PIA since you need to bleed the brakes, remove everything and send them out. I just don't have the patience or time right now to deal with all of that and can powder coat over the winter when I won't be driving the car.

There is another option. There's a local guy that masks it all off and airbrushes the calipers with hi temp paint of your color choice. Adds decals and then clears. It's not cheap but cheaper and easier than powder coating and looks better than G2.

Might be worth checking around your area if you're looking for a higher quality finish.

Example:

You can get away with mixing up half the epoxy and still get the job done with a good brush. It sprays very well too.

Hey, just a follow up, planning on doing this, but noticed the stickers on Amazon have ship date about 1 mo. out, has anyone recently bought the stickers and gotten them sooner? Would suck to have to wait a month. . .

Hey bro. Where did you get your calipers done? They look clean.

will those white brembo stickers stick really well to the caliper? I was thinking u should put the stickers on before the paint does dry so it helps stay on.

Mine have stayed on without issue. The paint was dry before I put them on.
