ok so i have a set of brembo callipers that are a bit tatty and could do with some work before fitting them. when they came of the last car they were in full working order

my questions are what can i use to remove the existing paint without damaging the surface beneath

what colour should i repaint them

i think red would be an over kill on my car thats allready red

i was thinking more maybe black?

cheers guys and girls

Dont ever sandblast them as you will never get all the sand out of them

Red+Black=killer combo

I cant think of any other colours that would work anywhere near as well.

Nitromors or if you can acid dip them to clean them up, can you get a refurb kit with piston seals and the like from brembo?
