Mipa silicone remover in liquid or spray format helps remove grease, wax and surface contamination before sanding and coating. Clean metal gives the caliper paint a better start.
Brake detail painting
Brake calipers and drums are small but demanding parts. The surface must be cleaned, scuffed and masked carefully before colour is applied, because brake dust, grease and heat exposure can quickly show poor preparation.
Mipa silicone remover in liquid or spray format helps remove grease, wax and surface contamination before sanding and coating. Clean metal gives the caliper paint a better start.
MP Sanding Sponge reaches curved caliper shapes, drum edges and small corners where a flat sanding sheet is hard to control. Medium grades help create mechanical grip before coating.
MP Hand Block Soft supports controlled sanding on shaped surfaces. It helps keep pressure steady where the part has curves, ribs or small flat areas.
Mipa brake caliper paint spray 400 ml is the specified glossy aerosol topcoat for calipers. Blue, yellow, red and black variants give common brake detail colours.
Brush away loose dirt and clean the part thoroughly before any coating work starts. Brake dust left in corners can weaken the final look.
Use the sanding sponge or soft block to key the caliper or drum surface so the colour coat has mechanical grip.
Clean again with silicone remover and let the surface dry before masking and painting.
Protect discs, pads, bleed nipples, hoses, rubber parts and nearby bodywork from overspray before spraying colour.
Apply Mipa brake caliper paint in controlled coats, allowing flash time between coats and avoiding heavy wet edges around corners.
The sponge and soft block matter because calipers and drums are not flat panels. Better contact helps reduce missed glossy spots before paint.
Brake caliper paint creates the visible finish, but the surface cleaning and sanding decide how tidy that finish looks after road use and brake dust exposure.
Plan the colour with the wheel design. Bright caliper colours draw attention to preparation quality, so spend extra time cleaning the corners and masking the surrounding brake parts before spraying.
