Hi, I'm gonna paint my brake calibers on mynfabia vrs, any suggestions on wat pant and wat color and were I can fetch it would be most appricated, cheers michael

any hammerite

whatever colour you fancy

any DIY store

 

you are welcome.

 

have a look at this post

I did mine with hammerite and my mums Ibiza with some cheap caliper spray paint.

The finish on the sprayed one is much better (although they are 'just brakes', so is a perfect finish that important?)

But it did take a lot more prep than hammerite

Its up to you though - both are acceptable

Cheers guys, it for my Fabia vrs, so it's that green Im after, had a look at Hammerite and can't get anything close, also tried skoda and they don't sell it, told me it was either traffic light green or lime green

an exact match is hammerite smooth green

However it was discontinued a long time ago.

 

Tins do come up for sale on here when people do their brakes realise they have 80% of a tin left and there's a market for it.

 

For example see here

They do Hammerite colour mixing now, are any of these close to the vRS green?

Cheers for the help people, even if I got sum thing close

Got sorted, got it mixed up, 8 quid, getting done 2morrow, let you,s know how they look, cheers ppl

Just curious, what did you get in the end and is it a close match to original colour?

Wouldn't mind knowing myself... I need to refurb the calipers on the Wife's vRS when I install new discs and pads and she wants me to paint the calipers but wants the same colour! 

Hammerite black

Probably too late now, but the best colour match for Skoda 'Mint' Green is Pantone 348.

I have a rear new calliper that needs painting and that's possibly what I'll buy.
