Yellow brake calliper paint

[DanH]

Anyone know where I could find some calliper paint that matches the 996 ceramic callipers? Theres a small chip on one of mine and I'd like to touch it in. Porsche claim that they don't have a colour code or any touch in paint.

I've got a suspicion they are supplied pre-painted by another manufacturer (I've forgotten whether its AP or Brembo).

The calipers are made by Brembo.

The red calipers are guards red, you sure the yellow ones aren't speed yellow?

They tried to use speed yellow but it looked wrong. I suspect it won't stick being low temp paint anyway, but thats the best the OPC can do

Halfords ?

I picked up some paint from Halfords for a similar chip on my Red Boxster S caliper.

It's an exact match and very reasonably priced.

Sure they had yellow, but not aware if it's an exact match, but worth a look.

Was this calliper paint or just normal paint?

Foliatec, reasonably easy to use, and recommneded on many a forum.
About £20 or so a kit, cleaner and laquer and hardener.

Dan, don't Dulux offer a colour matching service at B&Q, Homebase, et-al??!! Whip a calliper off for a few mins and take it along for a scan!!
