I used 1200 degree engine paint about 7 months ago when i first painted my brake calipers. They are very dirty and almost black again.<P>I just snatched up a pair of KVR X-drilled rotors and i am planning on repainting them. Any ideas on different paint that might last longer or look better?<P>Matthew Small<BR>94 MX-3

OK, this will sound really unrealistic, but I've heard of people getting great success with using Testors Enamel model paint. It apparently stands up to the heat very well and stays shiny forever. Of course, painted calipers adds weight, and weight makes you slower, so I really know nothing about that
