I'm not sure what it'* called/which brands are good quality.

It'* the super-tough/glossy paint they use on fancy brake calipers, aftermarket suspension pieces, etc.

I'm heading to my local auto-supply store tomorrow, and I'm trying to figure out which brand/type of paint to use.

i've always used duplicolor high heat engine paint for any engine suspension painting im adding some pics of the stuff i painted..heres an STB i sold a while back paint held up great

the red and the blue re both duplicolor high heat engine paint

Hell i even used it to do my grille and brake drums/calipers

X2 on the duplicolor.

hit it with the high temp clearcoat for some extra durability and gloss.

I have a can of ceramic caliper paint. Very shinny, goes on easy and is very strong. Got it at Autozone for $20 and one can goes a long way. I think its duplicolor.

Should I sand the old paint off first, or just spray right over it? (after cleaning, of course.)

is sand the old of first to give it a rough surface to stick to (te new)

Venom has had great luck with barbecue paint on his calipers, and at half the cost!

and...when he slams on the brakes, its smells like short ribs!

hahaha
