  • How much paint for my calipers?

    I'm painting my calipers and drums gloss black on tues., how many cans do I need to pick up of gloss black and clear coat (and should I also get gloss clear coat?). Thanks a lot.

    1 can should be enough to do both sides.

      1 can could do almost two cars

          I jsut did mine 2 days ago. I used one can of paint that I picked up at a local auto center for about $8. I used almost the hole can for the calipers and the drums. I put on 3 coats and waited 20-25 min between coats. I also would wait about 1-2 hours to put your wheels on after the final coat. I did not use clear coat, you shoudl be fine with out it. Good luck
