Brake Caliper Painting Service.

[T-wrx]

Hi all,

 

Just like to share a very good & cheap lobang with all of you.

 

I've had a real hard time locating caliper painter for the job. In the market I've only managed to get a few of them right now. However, many of them charges much higher as it involve taking out of wheel and spraying the caliper. There is actually no different for the finishing of our stock calipers by spray or paint as out caliper's surface is uneven and rough. Thus, I have decided to go for the cheaper alternative of painting. Below is a few of the choices.

 

Please do not flame me as I hope this will benefit all the bros here looking for this service, as I had a real hard time locating them in the car market.

 

1)Name : SOH Brother-shop

Service : Spraying

Appointment : Only weekday with appointment

Price : 2/5

Website : nil

 

2)Name : Nightz Concepts-shop( Look for dave )

Service : Spraying

Appointment : Everyday with appointment

Price : 1/5

Website : just google nightzconcepts

 

3)Name : streetcalipers-freelancer

Service : painting.

Appointment : Weekend only

Price : 5/5

website : www.streetcalipers.blogspot.com

 

I've chose streetcaliper to do this job.

 

Pros:

1)Very good price

2)Did not take out rim as he said he was afraid alignment etc will not be right after wheel being taken out.

3)Very nice finishing, imo same as spraying

4)Very clean job, no stains etc on rim and any other where else.

 

Cons:

1)Long working hours, he did about 4 hours for my ride but I guess it should be about the same with other shops?

2)Need to leave car keys with him because I want to have my lunch at the nearby area, but I did jot down his IC and took a photo of him. He also passed me his student card in exchanged.

 

For pricing, i think it is not advisable to post it here, do pm me I'll tell you the pricing they quoted me fro all 3 company.

 

Cheers,

 

 

P/s: Please do not flame me, this is purely for the benefit for those who are looking for this service, as I really had a hard, hard time finding.

Hi,

Yes, I'm the same guy that started that last thread, due to personal reason, I changed to a new account. I'm not promoting etc. I'm just helping those bros who need caliper painting svc lobang as I had a hard time finding one weeks back. These are just a consolidation of the lobang I found. Nothing else. I don't gain anything from this. Please do not flame me. If I did offend anyone, I'm sincerely sorry.

Actually I don't think painting callipers will spoil leh.

 

I just diy-ed my callipers for fun.

 

Turn out quite nice. Along with rotor hub and sides.

 

At least better than the rusted and dusted look from most cars.

Hi everyone,

 

Just like to find out if anyone knows where to buy a high temperature resistant spray paint (white colour)? I have gone to several paint stores, and they only have silver or black for high temperature resistant spray paints.

 

Thanks a lot!!

Hi-temp white??

 

Never see before.

 

Anyway, if wanna use for callipers, can forget it....It'll get yellow then brown the dirty brown.....

 

But if you are really looking for it, my guess is that you can try out J*hns*n and ask around.

 

Otherwise, probably have to import.
