Default Cleaning up stock brakes

I sprayed bombed my calipers last year and was never satisfied with the results. In the past I had used a paint on caliper paint from G2 and had good luck but skimped for whatever reason...

So I made it a point as a winter project to repaint the calipers and frames, after I removed them I decided to grind the casting flash off them also.

So what I used
36grit paper
Die Grinder
Duplicolor Caliper paint
Foam Brushes

What I started with...


So i ground and ground the calipers and frames...




All painted up. Finish is shiny and smooth and no flash lines ...





Installed on the car and getting bled... I'll post pics once I get the wheels back on...
