Review: The perfect solution to getting those shiny red brake calipers! - At under ten bucks on average, the VHT SP731 Real Red Brake Caliper paint can-11 oz. is well worth every penny. It seems to have more paint than most normal paint cans. This single paint can, can be used to spray 4 big truck-sized calipers. Specifically designed for detailing in breaks, drums, calipers and rotor customization. Designed to withstand immense heating. It can endure over 900 degrees when cured properly. Caliper covers are good customizations but they are not pocket friendly and they may not fit the car’s rims properly. With this paint though, an affordable customized makeover is possible. Even with bad roads and harsh weather conditions, this paint will not peel, rust or even crack. Using the real red brake caliper is as easy as applying it and waiting for it dry. Also, the paint doesn’t drip. Of course before applying, one ought to clean the calipers very well before applying the paint. Dirt, sand, dust, grease, oil, grime, and other junk can obviously cause the paint to not stick. Brakes take a ton of abuse being under the car, so you may consider a thourough degreaser. Other than that, there are no significant caveats attached to it. The effective performance of this paint of course applies to correct curing. The instructions for curing have been provided by the manufacturer on the package box. It is though worth noting that curing happens during the normal braking operation temperatures (around 200 degrees Fahrenheit) or if the braking operation is not possible during the period of curing, then pre-heating the parts is also viable. To get to the 200 degrees Fahrenheit, one is required to drive the car at a pretty high speed after painting and then braking hard. This curing aids in chemical resistance against fluids like fuel and brake fluids. If you don’t cure the paint then bad things will happen. One of the bad things that will happen is that the paint will melt leaving you with a messy surface. To achieve a glossy red color, you can use the red brake caliper paint with a primer and a clear coat. VHT also stocks primers and clear coats. The caliper paint can also be used on motorcycle wheels. The wheels will look really good. The paint has a strong odor and it may irritate your nose and throat. Everything should work fine and as expected if all the instructions are followed. You will also have to tape the caliper’s surroundings. But all in all, the search for the perfect brake caliper paint should start and end with this paint as it truly does what it says it will do. This paint is also evidently superior to other caliper paints like Rustoleum and Duplicolor.
Review: LOVE IT - I was iffy about doing this to my car, but I decided I’m on vacation so I might as well get it done because I’m not paying somebody for something I can do to my car myself no matter what it is if I can do it I’m doing it I’ll buy the parts and do it myself and I love the results Great color. The paint quality is amazing. It looks good. It worked very well. I recommend this to any and everyone this is a 10 out of 10 and still holding up four months later because I did this a while ago now. So for anyone who wants to do some type of project on their car or their truck, you can do it just like I did Update*** It’s been a little over a year now and the paint is still holding strong and I still love it glad I went this route instead of buying caliper covers

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many cans did it take to do all 4 calipers? Or is one can good enough?**
A: I did my Z06 from the stock red to gloss yellow, I would say to get 3 cans to be safe, keep extra for any touch ups in the future, spray into cap. use small brush to touch up, I did these about 4-5 yrs ago, at the time I never seen any caliper paint, so I used the VHT yellow gloss engine enamel and it worked awesome, heat rating a lil lower, but is fine for everyday, if you track your car where you will really be heating up your brakes, get the Caliper paint .

**Q: can i use this product to heat-proof an art project trivet made of ceramic tile with decorative paper on it?**
A: Yes thats exactly what I used it for.

**Q: Can I use this to paint a cooktop? I'm having a hard time finding high heat paint that comes in a gloss and not flat finish.**
A: Hi beth, I used this on my brake calipers and my hummer h3 muffler, so far it's still there no chipping , I think this will hold on your cook top , brakes and mufflers heats up over 900 degrees , hope this help,

**Q: Can I just paint over existing caliper paint? I have red that’s chipping, can I just paint it black over it?**
A: Yes you can but you should have to scrape the old paint and clean it up well before you spray it over with the black paint

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome results, use a paint brush if needed!
*by E***H on August 25, 2025*

Just Awesome. First time working with this brand and I see why it's the industry leader. The spray is almost enamel-like and color is true to the name- Real Orange. Easy to work with, I previously used black caliper paint from a different brand and while it wasn't bad, the quality of this is obviously better. I was hesitant working with the spray since orange will be obvious if there is dripping or overspray. I looked at some videos online and trying used a small paint brush to apply. I sprayed this into the top of another spray can and just dipped the paint and lathered on with minimal masking. After 2 coats it shines through. I love the result on my Jag!
