Today I started on my calipers got one off and cleaning it, as of wright now I think its gonna take a while cause Im a bit lazy and doing it slowly just so it comes out perfect. I think Im going to go buy a Dremmel so I can get to all the small spaces with no problem.

I'm sure someone here has one you can borrow so that you don't have to buy it.

get a piston removal tool and a oem rebuild kit, then use aircraft stripper, wash prep and paint. the reassemble. done. one at a time is wasteful.

You don't need to do all that, you could get some acetone and it will take the clear coat right off. Then spray some primer on them and 2 coats of paint and 1 of clear and you will be good.

I used paint stripper didnt work so I just used the dremmell and then gave it three coats and you cant even tell it was red before. It actually looks really good.
