I have the red "S" brakes on the boxster. The red seems to be holding up well, but the clear coat is peeling in some areas. I plan on pulling the calipers off and fixing the clear. I asked the local part shop what to use..... I have some PGP Deltron 4000 clear, but that is for the body and I wasn't sure how that would hold up. He told me to use the clear in a spray can that was labeled for wheels. I have a bad feeling about this..... but, the parts guy says to trust him.

Has anyone freshened up the clear on the calipers.... and if so, what did you use? What did you use to touch up the red?
