Hi,

Just bought an 04 plate ex-demo A4 3.0 Quattro Sport Avant and am surprised
to see the calipers showing small signs of rust already.

I notice Halfords sell caliper paint, my local car shop also sell some but a
different make.

Halfords you had to paint them, wait 15 mins, paint again... the other brand
you just painted on.  Both were 2-part paints.

Are there good and bad ones?  Which is the best?

Thanks in advance

Daz

Any  paint formulated for high heat should be fine.  Try to keep the coating
thin....  too thick will make it crack after some time.
