FAQs

What is included in the E-Tech Brake Caliper Paint Set?

The set includes one 250ml tin of gold enamel brake caliper paint, one 500ml spray cleaner for surface preparation, and a brush for application.

Do I need to dismantle my brake calipers to use this paint?

No, the paint is designed for easy application without the need for dismantling brake caliper parts, although thorough cleaning is essential.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity. It is recommended to allow sufficient drying time between coats and before driving. Refer to the product packaging for specific curing times.

Is this paint suitable for all types of vehicles?

It is designed for general use on brake calipers, but compatibility with your specific vehicle model should be verified before purchase, as variants exist.

How resistant is the paint to brake dust and chemicals?

The enamel paint is specifically formulated to be resistant to brake dust, chemicals, corrosion, and oil, ensuring a long-lasting finish.

Can I use a spray gun instead of the included brush?

While a brush is included for application, you may be able to use a compatible spray gun if you thin the paint according to manufacturer recommendations. However, ensure proper masking and ventilation if spraying.

What is the return policy for this product?

This product is sold by Eurocarparts and adheres to their terms and conditions, including a 60-day return policy.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering well.

Ensure the caliper surface was thoroughly cleaned and degreased using the provided cleaner. Surface contamination or moisture can prevent proper adhesion. Re-clean and ensure complete dryness before reapplication.

Uneven or streaky finish.

This can be due to inconsistent application or the paint drying too quickly. Ensure even strokes with the brush and avoid applying in direct sunlight or excessively hot conditions. Consider a second, thinner coat if needed.

Paint is chipping or peeling.

Insufficient surface preparation or exposure to harsh chemicals can cause this. Remove the affected paint, clean the surface again thoroughly, and reapply. Ensure the paint has fully cured before exposing it to extreme conditions.

Cleaner is not removing all contaminants.

For stubborn grime or old paint, a more aggressive pre-treatment might be necessary. Consider using a dedicated brake cleaner or automotive degreaser, followed by a thorough rinse and drying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a professional-looking finish.
  • Resistant to common automotive contaminants like brake dust and oil.
  • Easy to apply, simplifying the customization process.
  • Enhances the overall aesthetic of wheels and braking system.
  • Offers corrosion protection for caliper longevity.

Cons

  • Requires careful preparation and application for best results.
  • Compatibility must be checked with specific vehicle models.
  • The 250ml volume may be insufficient for some larger caliper sets.
  • Potential for overspray if not applied in a controlled environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Thoroughly clean the brake calipers using the included 500ml spray cleaner and a brush. Ensure all dirt, grease, and old paint are removed.
  2. Allow the calipers to dry completely.
  3. Mask off surrounding areas (wheels, brake lines, bodywork) to prevent overspray.
  4. Apply the gold enamel paint using the provided brush or a compatible spray gun, following the manufacturer's recommended application thickness.
  5. Allow adequate drying time between coats and before reassembling any removed components (if applicable).

Compatibility:

While designed for most standard brake calipers, it is crucial to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and year. Variants are common, and incorrect application on incompatible materials could lead to adhesion issues or premature failure. Check with your vehicle manufacturer or a qualified mechanic if unsure.

Care:

To maintain the finish, clean calipers regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washing directly on the painted surface. The durable enamel is designed to withstand normal driving conditions.
