Brake caliper painting in Markham
Anyone got their brake caliper painting done in Markham? Any good shop suggestion? How long do I have to leave the car there? Thanks in advance.

If you don't want to do it yourself (plenty of youtube videos to watch), you'll likely find some kijiji or FB Marketplace people doing it.

Not sure about in Markham but not to far from there I would go to Evolution Racing - https://www.instagram.com/evolution_racing/ What you want is Powder Coating it will be the best and last the longest. If you want cheaper then you could paint them. Call them and get a price/time frame

It's pretty easy to do yourself for like $40..

This isn’t in Markham, but pretty close. Try Phantom Autos in Scarborough. He did the Calipers and rims on my BMW.

Ideally you'd want them powder coated. Calipers get pretty hot and the paint never really likes to stay.

They do a good job, but honestly they are the most unorganized place.golden wrote: ↑ Thanks everyone. Anyone tried Spence Tire?
https://www.spencetire.com/caliper-painting.html
I went there with an appointment and it took them 5 hours to work on my car because some other guy came after me, and they parked his car behind mine and started working on his car.
After the work was done, he wanted to charge me extra for rotor painting, but I never told him to do the rotors so had to have a talk with him.
The next time I used ceo tires, and they did a great job. Was in and out in 45 mins and the paint is still holding up after 3 years and around 50k kms.
