Brembo calipers repaint HELP!

I plan to repaint my brembo calipers because the paint starts peeling off. I wonder if anybody knows what brand paint is better (G2 or..) Do I have to scrap my calipers with sandpapers first then paint it or just paint right on it? Any clue...

PS: Lot of people told me to do paintcoated but I wonder where in Central Jersey!? or any where in Queens, NY and price is around... HELP OUT!!

Yea you definately have to get all the peel off of them. Id use a high temp paint of some sorts. Powder coating would be better Im not sure of anyone in the area

There is a post on here some while ago about brembo's peeling, he took them to the dealer and is getting factory powder coated brembo's at no charge.

Would be curious if you qualify for the upgrade..
