chipped brembo,how to repair?
Hi
My front brembo caliper has got a small chip on it,when i say chip i mean its taken the gold off it
its about the size of your finger nail.
So the question is,whats the best way to repair it?
Any ideas?
Cheers

Not hard of people having chips on the calipers before !
Would be tempted to try some touch up paint on them first, and then possible some laquer over it.
Try brembo and see if they know the paint code or what they suggest ?
Will be checking my calipers this weekend for chips now !!

I think what happens is a stone gets thrown up and gets trapped between the caliper and the inside of the wheel. I got a small chip on mine and touched it up with some gold laquer paint supplied in a small glass jar from Wilkinsons - high street hardware stores nationwide. The match is near perfect.
