THANKS FOR YOUR HELP,
I BROUGHT TRILLOGY SAVAGE RED CALIPER PAINT IT WAS £25 WAY TO MUCH

ANY WAY I TOKE THEM ALL OFF THEN I SPRAYED THE BRAKE CLEANER ON AND THEN SCRUBED AND SCRUBED AND GOT ALL THE S**T OFF BUT IT WAS STILL A LITTLE OILY AND DUSTY BUT COZ IM THICK I LEFT IT AND STARTED TO PAINT.
THAT WAS AT ABOUT 2 OCLOCK YESTERDAY THEN ANOTHER COAT AT 6 OCLOCK THEN I LEFT IT OVER NIGHT AND THEY WAS DRY BUT THEY FELT STICKY ABIT,
SO I PUT THEM ON THE CAR AND BLEED THE BRAKES.
THEY LOOK OK BUT NOT AS GOOD AS I THOUGHT THEY WOULD LOOK,
I THINK YOU SHOULDENT RUSH WHEN YOUR DOING IT TAKE YOUR TIME.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
