Assembled the flanges and discs today. The discs got some paint to keep corrosion at bay.

Why black though? Will they be painted silver eventually?

It's what we have. They won't be seen anyway.

The black actually looks quite cool, keep up the always excellent work

Unfortunately I don't have any before photos, but I rebuilt the calipers, ready for fitting :

What paint do you use on the calipers and if you don't mind my asking, how much does it sell for and where can one find it?
RE: 1380 Clubman - Jared Mk3 - 04-10-2016
This is what I used : CLICKY
They stock it in black and red too. It goes a very long way, so it might be worth buying it with someone to share.
RE: 1380 Clubman - Vinay-RS - 04-10-2016
Awesome. What else on a mini can it be used for? Rear brake drums and backplates perhaps?
Also what is the prep procedure for the calipers?
Ok, I just spotted the full rebuild thread for the calipers in the technical section of the forum
RE: 1380 Clubman - Jared Mk3 - 04-10-2016
I used it on the MC's on the Mk3. I'm sure you could use it on the drums as well.
