Does anyone know where I can get pink high temp paint for calipers in Ireland?
Most of the American sites won't ship to Ireland and the ones that do cost more for shipping than it does for the paint.

Use some grey/white vht as a base coat and then spray your pink over that. Simples

^^^ have you tried that?

I got red before off a uk parts site it cost £20 shipping for £12 can cos they would only send it on the ground and wouldn't fly it for safety I guess.

Yep, done it a few times on different bits and never had a problem with the paint afterwards.

my callipers are flourecent orange and all i did was spray them rattle can white first and then rattle can flourecent orange. and theyv been fine for years now. no need to go to extra expence at all. but the high temp white would deffo be of help.
