New brake discs and pads next week, want to spray my calipers red at the same time. Anyone else done this? How many coats and how long should I leave the wheels off for?

Two coats of hammerite, leave over night or couple hours at least and job done

Get the brush on stuff its far better than the tin imo, and a thin brush and an inch brush
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Finally got round to wrapping the other front pillar. Does any one know if the rounded bit above the glove box is removable? Want to wrap that to and will be much easier if I can take it off Image

It's £75 excess through insurance. Will that affect my no claims or raise my premiums? And will they get it sorted tomorrow?
