Skinning, skinning, painting, painting ... admiring! =) - Toyota Caldina, 2.0 L, 1997

Skinning skinning painting painting  admiring   - Toyota Caldina 20 L 1997

As much as 5 days off, that's how lucky it was! Uncle Crude was damn right. I could not resist!
In fact, I am not me, unless I tighten at least one bolt on my car. At first he doubted, then he decided, then he doubted again, then he drank, then there were a lot of things to do and now there was only one day off. Hallelujah all the same, I got out to the area in front of the house, first went to Stroymart, bought there white spirit, a pair of gloves, a brush, masking tape and a brush with iron bristles.
Armed means forewarned =)

The order of work was simple:
1) Remove the wheel
2) Apply masking tape to the area where you would not want paint to get.
3) Until the pulse is lost (only without fanaticism, not to hook the rubber parts), we work with an iron brush, rip off all the shit from the caliper, blow it out, clean it again, help with the brush to sweep away dust and asbestos plaque.
4) The caliper is ready. Pour white spirit over the brush, degrease the whole thing and wait 20 minutes for everything to dry.
5) Apply the first coat of paint. We wait. After 30 minutes, the paint no longer sticks to the fingers.
6) Apply the second coat of paint. We are waiting for 15-20 minutes.
7) Apply the third coat of paint. After that, if you wish, you can immediately put the wheel back. In the case of my rear drum brakes, I had to wait because the wheel was in contact with the painted drum.

What happened in the end, you can judge for yourself. I really liked the color. Bright enough. I was pleased with the paint.
So to speak, one more plus in favor of my car =)

In general, at first I planned to use a counter-mounted drill counter. But somehow there is no current on the site, but I didn't want to ask the neighbors for electricity =)

it turned out well, in order for the color to be brighter, first painted white and then red =)

I'd put the caliper back on the contrary. =) drums do not twist me ...

it turned out great! I will also "suffer like that;)). drums look more interesting!)) the support is less visible.

the fact that the drums are not rotten)) this is by the effect of braking!)) the supporter is certainly better)). just the very effect of beauty.) (as anyone);))
