Gremlyn's Garage is happy to announce we are going to start selling caliper paint kits. These are high temperature, glossy brake paint kits to really make your calipers stand out. Best of all, you do not need to remove your calipers as the paint is brushed on!
I am looking for a willing participant to test out one of these kits so that everyone can see their quality, I figure it's easier to trust a forum member than me ;) Plus someone gets a cheap kit!
The kits will sell for $28 shipped normally (I'll have an intro pricing sale, don't worry), and I would like to offer HALF PRICE shipped to one lucky tester; the one catch is that you will be required to take pictures of what you're doing and post a short review when all is said and done.
The kits for now come in three colours: RED, BLACK, and BLUE
If you're interested, please PM me. Don't forget, first come first served! :driving:

Thanks to everyone for their interest, I have my tester who should be receiving the kit by the end of the week. I'll have the kits up for sale in the next couple of days on my website, and they will start shipping next week.

Ok so the weather cleared out today and I finally got to use the Gremlyn's Garage Paint Kit on my car. I have to say that this paint is great quality and looks awesome. I have used the Duplicolor paint kits before on my Grand Prix, but the Gremlyn's Garage kit is by far a better product. The color is a bright red and is easy to brush on. Even after the first coat, the color looks great. Here are a few pictures of the preparation, painting and the final product. I should have better quality pictures by tomorrow since these were taken in the shade.
Everything I used to do the job.
