Hi have a couple of questions about the possibility of Powder coating my Brembo Callipers.

So, Question:
Is it possible to powder-coat brake callipers?

I don't see why not, and they are in need of stripping back to bare metal anyway (currently chipped and flaking, with a little rust etc).
I presume (bare in mind this is just a theory and i might be a fool) i just make sure that all the internals etc are covered and that the calliper is well stripped and in good condition before the new paint graphic and laquer.

This leads me to a couple of questions from there:
1. Does anyone know the paint code for Brembo RED?
2. Who can supply me with new Brembo Graphic/Logos?
3. Can somebody recommend a good Powder-Coater in Hertfordshire or nearby?

Thanks people.

Michael

Another Question:

Whats the best way to bleed and leave my brake system if im removing all the callipers and carriers to refurbish them? Do i bleed all of them or just disconnect them and top up when re-fitting them later?
Id like to avoid getting air in them or causing any problems.

Cheers
