Default Caliper painting

Anybody can recommend a shop to sand blast and paint brake calipers? Hamilton/Burlington/Oakville/Mississauga area would work best for me.

Thank you,

George

Yes they can, but they wont be getting Blasted. Are they on your car or off the car? If they are On your car and you are using them, take it to Simply. But if they off the car and you are going to be using them after getting re-finished take to www.luxuryautobody.ca talk to Rich, he is the Owner

I had my calipers painted by Simply Tires a couple of weeks ago and they did a great job.

Excellent price at simply tire but painting them while on the car makes me nervous!

Nothing to be worried about, there was no overspray on my car, they are very meticulous. I pull the camera out and take some shots of the finished product.
