This is a set of GS calipers which I just received last week as a set of cores for a set we did we for customer. The customer’s friend used a paint brush with house paint to paint the calipers.😭
This is what I sent him.

It appears he had the same "paint" I used to do a flat roof over my shed.

You would almost have to try on purpose to make them look that bad.

I had a JSB coupe, and carefully did my calipers in matching blue, from a rattle can. Came out great, always got compliments. The blue looked so much better than red or black. And, as good as they looked, they never looked as good as the product pictured. I would make the switch, if it were me.

looks like the stuff we called 'black ante' to caulk between the roof and chimney flashing.
