Default Caliper Paint

Anyone recommend a decent caliper paint in the UK ? I have a set of four pots for the back that need a paint before fitting, I used the halfords one for the fronts but had trouble getting it to cure of stayed sticky for ages.

cheers

I've used this stuff in the past and its held up very well, got it from Frost I think.

did take a while to dry though, I seem to remember putting the calipers in the oven on a low heat for a few hours - though not sure I can advise that on a health and safety front if you intend to use the oven for cooking again...
