Painting Rear Drums

[Mikey16vClio]

Some1s told me that amarite paint can come off the drum due to heat!

If so, any1 tried this, whats the best paint to use?

Should u use sand paper to sand the rust off the drum b4 painting?

Thanx

Paint the drums bright red just so more people can notice you have drums..?

Heat resistant black paint from halfords

I used hammerite and i havent had any probs with it its stayed on fine

its best to rub the drums with a wire brush first if you have one and then the paint goes on better

wire brush in the drill will get them clean.

Then use hammerite to paint. The only cars where it will flake off due to heat are on front drum equiped cars.
