Removed the front brake calipers in effort to paint them (red, of course ) and to apply new stickers. In same time, I'll refurbish the calipers with new dustbooths, pads and also install new brake discs.

I was VERY concerned of how the caliper bolts would come loose (or not) after reading plenty of horror stories of that. On my car those came out very nicely, no fight at all, just a normal braker bar and even pressure. Also the bolts and threads do look to be in a very nice condition.

What was the recommended trick to put on caliper bolt treads at the time of re-assembly to make sure those bolts do not get seized there in the future either - was it copper paste or something else?

When these are done, it's time to do the same for rear calipers
