What we offer
Our caliper paint packages
Every package ends in a quote, never a fixed price, because caliper paint depends on your vehicle. Here's what changes it
Caliper Paint
All four calipers, in any colour you choose. Priced by vehicle size, since larger vehicles mean larger calipers and more work.
This service includes
- Full clean and preparation of each caliper
- Heat-rated caliper paint in the colour of your choice
- Exact paint-match to your body colour available
- OEM-style finishes available
- Priced as regular or larger vehicle
Why us
Prep is what separates this from a rattle can
Caliper paint fails for one reason: it was sprayed over brake dust, road grime, and old finish without being properly stripped and keyed first. It looks great for a season, then it flakes.
Our method cleans and prepares the caliper properly before any colour goes on, and uses paint rated for the heat cycling a brake caliper actually goes through. That is why ours stays looking right.
Colour is entirely your call. Bring us a paint code to match your body colour, pick an OEM-style red, or go somewhere unexpected. We will show you options before we start.
Visible every single time
Unlike most detailing work, this one is obvious from ten feet away. Through an open spoke wheel it is the first thing people notice.
Colour-matched or contrasting
Match your body colour exactly, go OEM red, or pick something that plays against the wheel. It is your call and we will mock it up first.
Prepped so it lasts
Proper preparation and heat-rated paint. This is the difference between a finish that holds and one that flakes off after a winter.
Pairs well with wheel coating
If the wheels are coming off anyway for a Level 3 wheel coating, doing calipers at the same time saves a separate visit.

Questions people actually ask
Caliper Paint FAQ
What colours can I have?
Any of them. We can match your body colour from the paint code, do a traditional OEM red or black, or use whatever you have in mind. Tell us what you are after when you request a quote.
Will it survive brake heat?
Yes, because we use paint rated for it and prepare the surface properly. The failures you have seen on other cars are almost always a prep problem rather than a paint problem.
Do you paint the brake calipers only, or the drums too?
Calipers are the standard job. If your vehicle has drums at the rear, tell us and we will include them in the quote so there are no surprises.
How long does it take?
Plan on the vehicle being with us for the day. Paint needs time to cure properly before the wheels go back on, and rushing that is how finishes get marked.
Can you add a logo or lettering?
Ask us. Depending on the caliper and what you have in mind it is often possible. Mention it in your quote request and we will tell you honestly whether it will look good on your specific caliper.
Still not sure? Call(313) 643-5463. We would rather talk you out of the wrong service than sell you one.
