ZPOST - View Single Post - Best Way to Refinish BBK Caliper for Track?

3002 tii · 06-28-2014, 05:32 PM

Need to refinish (paint or powder coat) my Stoptech ST40's. First time I took them on track, the calipers "wept" a little and brake fluid got all over the calipers. I'm sure the heat didt help and the calipers were permanently stained. Doesn't bother me that much and I've been driving like this for a year but wondering how I could go about refinishing this if/when I rebuild the calipers. More importantly, which method will hold up better when it comes to high temps, paint or powder coat? Does anyone have any experience with this?
