Where can I find brush on caliper paint in Black? Want to paint my calipers and wheel hubs. Not sure if I should use Standard Black or Semi/Hi Gloss Black?

Many people say that G2 is better that duplicolor. Haven't tried either, so just parroting here.

Have tried both, G2 holds up much better.

cool G2 it is!....should i pull the caliper off or just tape and paint.

Tape and paint works, that's why its better than spray can

G2 also gives you enough paint to do 3 cars.

went to NAPA and picked up some Duplicolor in Black. Couldnt find the G2 and was already there at NAPA...will give it a shot and try it out. Any advice will b appreciated.

G2 for 3 years now and it still looks new. I didn't pull the caliper when I did mine, but if I were to do it all over, I would pull the caliper for a more thorough job.

I recently painted my calipers using the g2 paint and it came out awesome! Highly recommend cuz it's easy and it looks really good

+1 on the G2 paint. Came out excellent on my last car. Haven't done anything on my E90 yet though.
