Default 84A Guards Red Paint

Any recommendation regarding the best quality 84A Guards Red Paint Spray in cans ? And any recommendation on the best quality Brembo Red brake caliper high temp in cans as well ? Brands that I have seen include: Scratch Wizard, Easy Repair Automotive (ERA Paints), and Touchup. Any other quality brands out there that are great quality and match as well, a source is appreciated as well ??


Please help, thanks in advance !

If you are looking for Guards Red body paint Porsche uses Standox, Spies Hecker (made by DuPont) and more recently Glasurit (made by BASF).

For brake caliper paint the stuff in the aerosol cans might be ok but a good outcome depends quite a bit not only on the quality of the paint but the quality of the preperation and the environment in which the paint is applied and then how the paint is cured.

Concerning the brake calipers, it's best to have them power coated with high temperature paint, then apply new Porsche decals.

Thank you so much for your replies ! I wonder, powder coating may require to completely disassemble these to protect its internal components. Am I correct ?

Guards red is almost a perfect match for brake calipers. Powered coating is not a paint but more like a plastic coating. Once it seperates to the object you get a delaminted situation, that no longers provides the protection needed.
