Painted my old calipers with 2PAC before.They were on the car 2 years with no peeling problems at all.Also they have 4 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear coat.The only reason heat proof paint tends to peel off the caliper is hasn,t been keyed properly and wont stick very well.

One quick question,which way do the callipers face.i;e are the bleed nipples at the top or on the bottom.?
