I just used black engine enamel, or you could just go out and get some caliper paint. Just make sure you clean and sand them.
I'm Getting New Tires Soon, I Was Thinking About Painting My Rear Drums Black Before I Get Everything Done, My Drums In The Back Are Pretty Rusty, Does Anyone Know Maybe How To Paint Them Or Clean Them? What Are The Right Materials To Use??:smt100

Just sand and clean them off really well, then use engine enamal, I'd suggest flat black, then they don't stick out as much.

Hmm I seee, so what kind of sand paper do u suggest? and i can get the enamal from autozone or around, but will it chip or fade? and, for the calipers im guessing i should just get the caliper paint kit...?

I used some really rough grit, don't remember which on exactly, and I also used some steel wool, then I took an air compressor and blew all the crap off, and painted it. Paint hasn't chipped yet.

I would use a wire brush, and parts cleaner. Then spray it black and call it a day.
do u have to put clearcoat?

I did this exact application with the dupli-color caliper kit. I used a drill and wire brush to grind the rust off. The whole process on 4 calipers took about 3 hours. The caliper kit comes with an ample amount of paint, but you have to brush it on but it works well. Oh yea, it also comes with the break cleaner.
i just painted mine last friday.me and my brother used a thing that has metal tips that i connected to my drill and i got most of the rust and other paint off.then i used sand paper to get the other stuff off and made it smooth.then after i wiped it down so it was clean from little dirt and what not.then after i just used caliper paint that i bought at murrays and put like 2 coats on it then that was it.it took about little over an hour with just the rear drums but im going to do the front calipers in a couple of days.
WANNA LOOK FRESH????
