+Eastwood Company I just spoke to one of your customer service reps to get more info on what I needed to complete a similar caliper project. She told me that you no longer carry high temperature powder coating for brake calipers and haven't in the last 5 years that she's been employed with Eastwood. She stated that "the KZread video you saw must have been an old one". Powder coating in nature is high temp, so which is it? Is this still available or not?
It is actually better to leave the seals and pistons in and cook at 300 degrees which will not hurt the seals at all and removal will most likely cause more damage than leaving them intact. Calipers can reach 600 degrees under normal conditions especially on motorhomes.

Great video, gave me a lot of ideas however i have one question, what type of material did you use for the porshe sticker so the heat wont melt the word design? cheers..
Wow! The amount of money people charge for this job.
where did you buy those calipers for $200?
Your site says that the powder coat is only good to us and up to 250 degrees with calipers can go all the way up to 1000 degrees so do you have any powder coat that is good for these calipers to withstand the high heat

1000 degrees for a caliper?
Great Job. FANTASTIC.
Did the gloss adhere to the sticker as well so you had a solid gloss layer over the sticker and powder coat?
why did you not polish the surface and prime it before powder coating? it looks rough from re-manufactured condition
Where can I find those red caps you are using for the holes??
Hay I got a question? @eastwoodco do you supposed to removed the bleeder screw before you put the calipers in the oven?
Very cool and all but one question... WHERE Did you get yourself a pair of 6piston Brembos for a steal?!

TONY HAWK in case your still looking, the calipers on the video are 17Z's from base model porsche cayenne, audi q7, and vw touareg, and a few more i believe. You can find full 4 corner sets on ebay for around $400-800, and probably cheaper if you get them from a part out.
I need to get myself this!!!!
What about gold plated??
weird question; is that a special decal or any decal is ok? i'm wondering why it didn't melt in the oven.
@Eastwood Company so when spraying the clear, you dont have to attach the grounding strap?
@eastwoodco

If you're using the "Hot Flocking" method you do not need the ground strap.
I too have a convenient cooking oven in my garage like thousands of Americans 👍
Did you bake the calipers with the rear caliper seal still in between the back brake? meaning I know some brembos are a two piece set up and on my particular car the back ones are a two piece set up that have a gasket in between the two pieces that keeps it from leaking. Brembo says do not separate the pieces so if I bake it in the oven at 400 degrees will it damage the gasket
I always thought you had to let the first layer to cool down completely before spraying the 2nd coat?
Rock auto, those are 17z's they came factory on mid 2000's Porsche Cayenne and VW Touareg

Hey in the video you mentioned media blasting the calipers what is the best media for the job thanks.
My calipers are in halves, is it ideal to bolt them back together before powder coating?

For the best powder coat result, separate them before powder coating. Msk off the proper area then rebolt back together when rebuilding.
where can i get these decals
could you tell me a bit about the decals maybe the brand are they vinyl? what exactly do I need to be able to clear over decals
@BigtimeKevin

It's high-temperature decal, that's why he able to bake them with it on and not have it fall off. But I personally recommend leaving that to the last step because the curing can move the font as you can see. Plus it gives you the option to change the font color time to time.
Great video
what kind of sticker is that?
@danialhowe9814

thats what i wanna know. you cant put a vinyl sticker in a 400 degree oven without it shrinking up and you damn well cant powder coat over the top of it! ( that being said whoever thinks that wavy ass logo looks good is blind ) - i have a great deal of experience with powder ( go to www.redbarronchoppers.com and look at the orange and silver bike and the yellow and red onr - thats 100% powder! the better way to make this work id do the base 50% cooked.... let it cool off then use an INVERSE logo and lightly rough up the soft powder inside the logo area and then SHOOT A DIFFERENT COLOR... put it back in the oven and cook the whole thing... you will never have to worry about it falling off its there for life!
How much powder do you actually need for 1 caliper?
why painting again and take it back to the owen after the same job ???!!!
great stuff
Just saw this video and I like it. The gloss powder that you added is this gold or clear? I wish you had a link to it since I have to paint my calipers gold and this was very interesting to learn.

We don't offer an automated way of doing what you're asking. You need to manually apply powder coat from a gun such as our PCS-250 then bake.

considering how HOT brakes get do you really think the pistons and seals would not withstand 400 degrees i think that is bullshit

It's not so much the heat, it's the powder getting on them and gumming up the works. Plus, continuous 400° for 20 minutes is a bit different than 1200° for a few seconds then cool down.
nice
Looks great minus that absolutely shocking sticker
wrong font type for porsche logo

$99 pancake compressor, spray outside, and use a dedicated powder-only toaster oven. Buy the cheap Harbor Freight gun and powders, boom: $200 powder coat setup. Granted, it won't get results like the pros, but it'll take up little space and cost almost nothing.
