I just bought the Dupli caliper paint kit, anyways i have sprayed the **** out of my calipers and they are still like ****** brown with dirt, the tooth brush i used to clean is like black.. ive only tried out 1 caliper? can i paint now?

 

bust out a wire brush

 

was about to suggest that. its a dirty job but someone has to do it.

 

i dont think i got one lol

 

If you used ALOT of the caliper cleaner and they still look a little dirty, it's alright. Run your finger across them.....does anything show on your finger or perhaps a white paper towel? If not, it's ok to paint them as they are just stained and the paint will go right over them. Not a big deal.

 

Spray them down with some brake cleaner and then brush the crap out of them.

 

use some 1000 grit sand paper

 

I just did mines this past weekend. But I only had 1,000 miles on it, and was able to brush it clean to a shiny silver.

Put whatever it takes into getting that baby clean. Do it right the first time and I can guarantee you'll realize how much it was worth it once you're done.

After the paint, I can't stop staring at it...
