In this video, I will show you how to properly paint the paint calipers on your vehicle. Follow the steps I show you and you will get the same excellent result.
HOW MANY CANS OF PAINT I USED TO PAINT ALL 4 CALIPERS??
As to quantity of paint I used, I ended up using 1.5 (2) cans of the burnt copper base paint, and 1 can of primer, and 1 can of clear. The reason for the 2 cans of base paint maybe to do I with one of the caliper got messed up with the sticker, so I had to repaint it. Otherwise I think one can of each should be good.
As for how much time to do this project. The drying time between coat is what takes up most of the time. Also depending on the ambient temperature and humidity, that will effect drying time. But if you are doing one side at time like I did, and the number of coats as shown in the video, expect about 6 hours time.
