Painting Brembo's?
I've seen many users rattle can our brakes, but what about the brush technique? Just looking for some feedback...Seems like it would be a lot less of a headache!

Thanks

Even after I sandblasted a set of calipers the brush stuff doesnt last a year. The dupli caliper rattle can lasts about 2 years. Anymore I just powder coat the damn things.
