Hi Guys

Striped down the calipers, removed seals and pistons and masked off with ply last week.

Today sandblasted the calipers back to bare metal. They are now as we speak being powdercoated and baked Rossi Red. More Pics to follow. Watch this space...

Comments questions welcome :)

Yep Mark easy enough to remove. Stripping down was a bit iffy. With the sandblasting you gotta make sure 100% that no particles get into the piston chambers and so too with the threads of the outter bolt holes. Prepping to longer than taking off car.
